Shower tray repair at your home in Wincobank
We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We work on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about a cracked shower tray and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Common problems we fix in Wincobank
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Comparing quotes
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access

Common questions in Wincobank
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you cover the entire of Sheffield?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Wincobank. Prices do not change with location.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When can I use the shower again?
Typically the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Wincobank. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your S5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Report any creaking or movement early
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
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. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
