Shower tray repair in Winder without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We work on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are edge chips from dropped bottles and a cracked shower tray.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Winder and across Cumbria.

What we’re called out for in Winder
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches in the surface
- A damaged area around the waste
- A cracked shower tray

What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Winder. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repairing versus replacing in Winder

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Questions from Winder
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What areas do you cover?
All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Are there extra charges for Winder?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
