Common questions in Alderton
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover the entire of Shropshire?
Across the UK, so Alderton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you come to Alderton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Alderton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Alderton
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Movement when you stand on it

What affects the price in Alderton
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in Alderton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Acrylic

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alderton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Repairing versus replacing in Alderton
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
