Empingham: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Empingham. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use the extractor fan
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in Empingham?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
