Common questions in Checkendon
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Checkendon?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your RG8 postcode.
How long does it take to cure?
Generally the next day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Are there extra charges for Checkendon?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Other services in Checkendon
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What affects the price in Checkendon
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Checkendon. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RG8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
What we’re called out for in Checkendon

The most common problems we are called about are:
- A crack across the base
- Chips on the edges
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before booking

- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Aftercare advice
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
