Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
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.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- 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.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage

Chalton questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Chalton.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How long does it take to cure?
Generally the next day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
- Use the extractor fan
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What we are called out for in Chalton
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A damaged area around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips caused during fitting
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What protection goes down before work starts

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Chalton. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chalton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Chalton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
