Farleigh questions
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Farleigh?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Farleigh, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

How we price shower tray repair

Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
Most customers in Farleigh get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
