A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
What areas do you cover?

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What else we do in Brackley Gate
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that moves underfoot
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Brackley Gate
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
Signs you need shower tray repair in Brackley Gate
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A damaged area around the waste
- A crack across the base
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A dull, stained or worn surface

What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
What affects the price in Brackley Gate
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
