Common questions in Horsley Cross
I let a flat near Mistley station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do, and a repair between tenants is generally quicker than replacing.
Will you travel to Horsley Cross?
Yes, we do: Horsley Cross is covered like any town. Tell us if access is tricky.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it. In a village or hamlet like Horsley Cross, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- 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.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CO11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Horsley Cross, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
When to call us in Horsley Cross
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A damaged area around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
- Movement when you stand on it
If you let a flat or house near Mistley station (about 2.7 miles north), we repair shower trays between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly.
