Shower tray repair in Ranby, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include scratches from cleaning or grit and chips caused during fitting, in cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Common questions in Ranby
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Ventilate the room after showers
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Ranby
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A tray that flexes
- Chipped corners or rims
- A cracked shower tray
- Damage around the waste

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Should you replace it?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
