Shower tray repair in Little Bourton without replacing anything
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are cracks running from the waste and chipped corners or rims.
In a village like Little Bourton, showers are often later additions to older homes, so we check how the tray is supported before repairing.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Little Bourton
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Little Bourton. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

- Any earlier repairs or coatings

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Repairing versus replacing in Little Bourton
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. For a rural home like those around Little Bourton, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No need to remove anything
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Common problems we fix in Little Bourton
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Damage around the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chipped corners or rims
Landlords with property near Banbury station (about 2.3 miles south) use us between tenancies, so shower trays are repaired rather than replaced.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead. For a rural address like Little Bourton, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the shower tray repair, so there is no second trip.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
