Shower tray repair in Windle without replacing anything
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for staining and dullness across the tray and scratches from cleaning or grit, across ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

Windle questions
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Windle. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.
Other services in Windle
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Windle
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:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chips on the edges
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Cracks running from the waste
Comparing quotes
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the price covers travel
- What aftercare is recommended
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray broken in more than one place
