Buckden questions
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Buckden. Prices do not change with location.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Shower tray repair in Buckden without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that flexes, we can help, on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Buckden
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Comparing quotes
- What preparation is included
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Buckden use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What else we do in Buckden
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Buckden

Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
