How we handle shower tray repair in Swinton
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. If you’re dealing with chips on the edges and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Salford.

FAQs for Swinton
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Salford, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Swinton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Check the seal every few months
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Swinton. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
What we are called out for in Swinton
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that flexes
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole

- If travel is included in the price

The process
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
