Common questions in Ford
Do you work in Ford?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ford. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Buckinghamshire.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Do you need shower tray repair in Ford?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A crack across the base
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
Before you book anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Should you replace it?

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What else we do in Ford
The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
