Shower tray repair at your home in West Thorney
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are staining and dullness across the tray and a damaged area around the waste.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. 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.
West Thorney questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in West Thorney.
Are there extra charges for West Thorney?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
How much does shower tray repair cost in West Thorney?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Should you replace it?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
