Shower tray repair at your home in Stapeley
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. If you are dealing with a damaged area around the waste and cracks running from the waste, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Stapeley
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Are there extra charges for Stapeley?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Stapeley?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
When can I use the shower again?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
For anyone letting property in or around Stapeley, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
What affects the price in Stapeley
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Common problems we fix in Stapeley
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- Movement when you stand on it
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repairing versus replacing in Stapeley
The tray is typically 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. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
