Shower Tray Repair for Smithy Bridge homes
Shower tray repair across Smithy Bridge and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Repairs from £95
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What else we do in Smithy Bridge
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Smithy Bridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Smithy Bridge. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your OL15 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
