Gibraltar questions
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Bedford Borough, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Repair or replace in Gibraltar?
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. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not 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.
Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

- Ceramic

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
