How we handle shower tray repair in Windmill Bank
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. We are often asked to fix a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and movement when you stand on it, in enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Windmill Bank and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Landlord and trade work in Windmill Bank
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Windmill Bank as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Windmill Bank, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Store bottles off the tray
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
