Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Shower tray repair at your home in Langford
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We’re often asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and a damaged area around the waste, across stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Langford get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Repair or replace in Langford?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Langford: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Do you need shower tray repair in Langford?
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
Before booking anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What preparation is included
- How your room will be protected
- Who turns up on the day
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
