Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your WN6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Standish
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Questions from Standish
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. 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.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
