FAQs for Braunston
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Braunston included. Travel is included in the price.
About our shower tray repair in Braunston
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are chips or cracks by the plughole and a cracked shower tray.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Braunston and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

When a repair isn’t the answer

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Braunston use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use the extractor fan
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Check the seal every few months
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
