Crossbank: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Repairing versus replacing in Crossbank
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
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.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
