Normally the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Shower tray repair in Digswell, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s a crack across the base and chips on the edges, we can generally put it right, on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Digswell. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in Digswell and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
