FAQs for Buckland Newton
Are there extra charges for Buckland Newton?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you cover Buckland Newton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Buckland Newton and the rest of Dorset. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
What areas do you cover?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
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.
