About our shower tray repair in Great Ponton
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can usually put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we are called out for in Great Ponton
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. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- Scratches in the surface
- A crack across the base
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Movement when you stand on it
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price covers travel
- When it can be used again
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Great Ponton. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Great Ponton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Great Ponton, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Great Ponton questions
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover Great Ponton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Great Ponton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
