Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Ventilate the room after showers
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Shower tray repair in Criddlestyle without replacing anything
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Typical jobs include damage from a refit or building work and staining and dullness across the tray, on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Criddlestyle
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chips on the edges
- A crack across the base
- A damaged area around the waste

Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What else we do in Criddlestyle
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Criddlestyle. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Criddlestyle, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Common questions in Criddlestyle
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Criddlestyle and the rest of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Criddlestyle?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
When can I use the shower again?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, generally the next day.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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 won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- 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.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
