Shower tray repair at your home in Cattedown
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. Common call-outs are for chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, on stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

What else we do in Cattedown
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cattedown. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
FAQs for Cattedown
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How long before I can shower?
Normally the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Do you work in Cattedown?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Cattedown for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
