Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Should you replace it?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When to call us in Brixworth

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

FAQs for Brixworth

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Brixworth and the rest of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work in Brixworth?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Brixworth. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
