Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Check the seal every few months
- Use the extractor fan
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse away soap after showering
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Do you need shower tray repair in Towngate?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chipped corners or rims

Your questions about shower tray repair in Towngate
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
