About our shower tray repair in Storrs
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s a dull, stained or worn surface and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria.

Landlord and trade work in Storrs
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Storrs use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

- Cracks running from the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Movement when you stand on it

FAQs for Storrs
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Storrs?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your LA23 postcode.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Storrs. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
