Shower tray repair in Wibsey without replacing anything
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are edge chips from dropped bottles and scratches from cleaning or grit.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Wibsey: your questions answered
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Are there extra charges for Wibsey?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Wibsey. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Wibsey
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse away soap after showering
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
