Shower tray repair in Whirley Grove, done in place

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches from cleaning or grit.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Whirley Grove

Common questions in Whirley Grove

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you cover the whole of Cheshire East?

We cover the entire UK, including Whirley Grove and the rest of Cheshire East. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
