Shower tray repair at your home in Bubnell
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. If you are dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and chips caused during fitting, we can help, on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bubnell and across Derbyshire.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we are called out for in Bubnell

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Bubnell, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What affects the price in Bubnell
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Bubnell. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Bubnell, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Other services in Bubnell
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
