DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Cast iron

Landlord and trade work in Garston
For anyone letting property in or around Garston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Common questions in Garston
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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, generally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the area is dry
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

We price from pictures so you don’t 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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
If you’re in Garston and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why Garston clients choose us
- We leave the room as we found it

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
