Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Shower tray repair at your home in Caldwell
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. If you are dealing with a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Caldwell
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you work in Caldwell?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Caldwell from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
When to call us in Caldwell
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that flexes

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Repairing versus replacing in Caldwell
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Other services in Caldwell
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
