Shower tray repair in Burton, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for chips caused during fitting and scuffs and light scratches, on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Common questions in Burton
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Are there extra charges for Burton?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What we’re called out for in Burton
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A crack across the base
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
Questions to ask before booking
- What aftercare is recommended
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Work done at your home or business

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Burton
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel

- Cast iron
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burton use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
