Shower tray repair in Whittle-le-Woods without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and people most often call us about damage around the waste and movement when you stand on it.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally 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 from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

FAQs for Whittle-le-Woods
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What areas do you cover?
All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you work in Whittle-le-Woods?
We do. We send a technician to Whittle-le-Woods for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
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.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Whittle-le-Woods
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips on the edges
- Chips caused during fitting
- A crack across the base
- Scuffs and light scratches
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- When it can be used again
- How the room is protected while they work
What affects the price in Whittle-le-Woods
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Whittle-le-Woods. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A year’s guarantee on all work

When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Trays cracked in several places
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
