About our shower tray repair in Kensworth
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 movement when you stand on it and a crack across the base, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Central Bedfordshire.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 generally the cheaper route.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Kensworth
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What we are called out for in Kensworth
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that flexes
- Staining and dullness across the tray
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
- How your room will be protected
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Get a moving tray checked
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Kensworth. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Kensworth. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LU6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
