About our shower tray repair in Wadshelf
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and staining and dullness across the tray.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Landlord and trade work in Wadshelf
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

FAQs for Wadshelf
Do you come to Wadshelf?
We do. We send a technician to Wadshelf for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

What else we do in Wadshelf
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- No extra charge for your area
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What affects the price in Wadshelf
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Wadshelf. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
