When a repair isn’t the answer

- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place

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.

Housham Tye questions
Are there extra charges for Housham Tye?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Housham Tye included. Travel is included in the price.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Housham Tye
A new shower tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Work done at your home or business

Common problems we fix in Housham Tye
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Before booking anyone
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
