Shower tray repair in Bransty, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for edge chips from dropped bottles and staining and dullness across the tray, across cast iron, stone resin and ceramic.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Store bottles off the tray
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Common questions in Bransty
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?
All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Bransty
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips on the edges
- Scratches in the surface
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
What affects the price in Bransty
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Bransty. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most clients in Bransty get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
