How we handle shower tray repair in Bucknell
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair cast iron, ceramic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a cracked shower tray.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Questions from Bucknell
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What your shower tray is made of matters
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
What we are called out for in Bucknell
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
