How we handle shower tray repair in Carterton
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s cracks running from the waste and a damaged area around the waste, we can generally 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.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
What we’re called out for in Carterton
Cracks often start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chipped corners or rims
- A crack across the base
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How changes to the job are handled
- When it can be used again
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Carterton questions
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Carterton?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your OX18 postcode.
Do you come to Carterton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Carterton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Carterton
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
