Shower tray repair in Water

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Shower tray repair in Water without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you are dealing with edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Water

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you cover Water?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Water. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repair or replace in Water?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Signs you need shower tray repair in Water

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

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.
