How we handle shower tray repair in Tyldesley
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new bathroom and chipped corners or rims.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Related advice
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
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.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Tyldesley, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Tyldesley
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
