Shower tray repair in Waddington without replacing anything
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We are often asked to fix staining and dullness across the tray and scratches in the surface, in enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Landlord and trade work in Waddington
If you manage property in Waddington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Waddington, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What we’re called out for in Waddington
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Before you book anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
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.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
