Shower tray repair at your home in Caulcott
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with a crack across the base and chips caused during fitting, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bedford Borough.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Caulcott: your questions answered
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. 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.

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
