The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes 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.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What else we do in Budock Water
Landlords, agents and businesses in Budock Water
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Budock Water
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A crack across the base
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips caused during fitting
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Budock Water. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Budock Water: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Are there extra charges for Budock Water?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
