Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Botley, Oxfordshire
Problem with your shower tray in Botley? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Before we arrive

Advice
How we handle shower tray repair in Botley
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We work on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about cracks running from the waste and chips caused during fitting.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
