Shower Tray Repair in Swayfield
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing for homes and businesses in Swayfield and across Lincolnshire. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Repairs from £95
- A damaged area around the waste
- A crack across the base
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Shower tray repair in Swayfield, done in place
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 will tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chips on the edges and chips caused during fitting.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Do you need shower tray repair in Swayfield?
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A cracked shower tray
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Questions to ask before booking
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
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 is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
What affects the price in Swayfield
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Swayfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
FAQs for Swayfield

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
