Common questions in Great Wigborough
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you cover the entire of Essex?
Everywhere in the UK, Great Wigborough included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Great Wigborough. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Check the seal every few months
- Ventilate the room after showers
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
For anyone letting property in or around Great Wigborough, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
