Ballingdon: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are there extra charges for Ballingdon?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you cover Ballingdon?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ballingdon from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Repair or replace in Ballingdon?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No extra charge for your area

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
