Shower tray repair in Townwell, done in place
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for edge chips from dropped bottles and cracks running from the waste, in acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin.
We stand behind the work 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. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Do you need shower tray repair in Townwell?
Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Aftercare advice
- What preparation is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
