What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Shower tray repair at your home in Whalley Range
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include movement when you stand on it and scratches in the surface, on cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When to call us in Whalley Range
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Cracks running from the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Questions from Whalley Range
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do you cover the entire of Blackburn with Darwen?
All of Blackburn with Darwen, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Whalley Range, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Other services in Whalley Range
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
