How we handle shower tray repair in West Halton
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Our technicians work on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a crack across the base and scuffs and light scratches.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in West Halton
West Halton questions
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do you cover the whole of North Lincolnshire?
The whole UK, including all of North Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover West Halton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to West Halton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Signs you need shower tray repair in West Halton
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A tray that flexes
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips caused during fitting
Questions to ask before booking
- How your room will be protected
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
