Questions from Burton

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Northumberland, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

When to call us in Burton

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that flexes
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chipped corners or rims

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before you book

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
