Common questions in Little Wittenham
When can I use the shower again?
Usually the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
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.
Common problems we fix in Little Wittenham
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A damaged area around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repair or replace in Little Wittenham?
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
