For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Northamptonshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What else we do in Great Houghton
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Great Houghton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
Most customers in Great Houghton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage

Great Houghton: your questions answered
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
