Shower tray repair at your home in Risley
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are movement when you stand on it and damage around the waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Risley: your questions answered
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What affects the price in Risley
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DE72 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Repairing versus replacing in Risley
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
