Questions from Bourton
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Bourton?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Shower tray repair in Bourton without replacing anything
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are snagging damage in a new bathroom and chips on the edges.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Check the seal every few months
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chipped corners or rims
- A cracked shower tray
What to look for in a quote

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bourton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bourton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
