The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Common questions in Knowbury
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
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.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Shropshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do you need shower tray repair in Knowbury?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Landlords, agents and businesses in Knowbury
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Knowbury use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
