Shower tray repair at your home in Wilden
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you are dealing with scratches in the surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Questions from Wilden
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. 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 items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How the visit works
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. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
For a price in Wilden, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
