Bentfield Green questions
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish, normally the day after.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Bentfield Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
Do you need shower tray repair in Bentfield Green?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Look out for these signs:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Before booking anyone
- When it can be used again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
