Shower tray repair at your home in Bromeswell
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with a damaged area around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help, on acrylic, ceramic and stone resin alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Bromeswell
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For anyone letting property in or around Bromeswell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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 generally cheaper.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

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 gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What else we do in Bromeswell
Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Use the extractor fan
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Questions from Bromeswell
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long does it take to cure?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, generally the following day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What we’re called out for in Bromeswell
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Movement when you stand on it
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches in the surface
