Shower tray repair in Emmer Green without replacing anything
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Typical jobs include scratches from cleaning or grit and chipped corners or rims, across ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Emmer Green as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Emmer Green. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Emmer Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaking waste fittings
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
FAQs for Emmer Green
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you come to Emmer Green?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Emmer Green and the rest of Reading. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Are there extra charges for Emmer Green?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
