Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Landlord and trade work in Bedford
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Bedford, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Common questions in Bedford
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are there extra charges for Bedford?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long does it take to cure?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, typically the following day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you cover Bedford?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bedford. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Bedford. What changes the price is:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in Bedford get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When to call us in Bedford
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Clients normally contact us about:
- A tray that flexes
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A crack across the base
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if they find more damage
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use the extractor fan
- Get a moving tray checked
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
