Your questions about shower tray repair in Uppermill
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Do you need shower tray repair in Uppermill?
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chipped corners or rims
- Movement when you stand on it

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Uppermill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What affects the price in Uppermill
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- 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 typically be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
