Shower tray repair in Walkern without replacing anything
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We work on cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin, and people most often call us about scuffs and light scratches and a crack across the base.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Walkern
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time on the day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walkern use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
