About our shower tray repair in Wardhill
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 explain what we find. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can generally put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Wardhill
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Wardhill
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common questions in Wardhill
How much does shower tray repair cost in Wardhill?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your KW17 postcode.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across the Orkney Islands.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Wardhill and the rest of the Orkney Islands. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Wardhill. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
For a price in Wardhill, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
