How we handle shower tray repair in Waddicar
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips or cracks by the plughole, across ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waddicar use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you need shower tray repair in Waddicar?
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

- Movement when you stand on it
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A cracked shower tray
- Damage around the waste

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Report any creaking or movement early
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Waddicar. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
