How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Winthorpe
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you come to Winthorpe?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Winthorpe and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Winthorpe?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Should you replace it?
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- 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 day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
