Your questions about shower tray repair in Farndon
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Farndon
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A cracked shower tray
- Chipped corners or rims
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Should you replace it?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
