Shower tray repair at your home in The Leigh
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you’re dealing with staining and dullness across the tray and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can generally put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Repair or replace in The Leigh?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What else we do in The Leigh
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

The Leigh questions
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
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’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Get a moving tray checked
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
