- Repairs from £95
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Great Cransley
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Cransley

When to call us in Great Cransley
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
People normally call us after spotting one of these:
- A crack across the base
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scratches in the surface
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
