Do you need shower tray repair in Guilton?
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Staining and dullness across the tray
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Guilton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you are in Guilton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Guilton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel

Guilton: your questions answered
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Are there extra charges for Guilton?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
