We travel to Thelwall for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

What affects the price in Thelwall
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thelwall use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
