About our shower tray repair in Longden Common
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are staining and dullness across the tray and chips or cracks by the plughole.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
What affects the price in Longden Common
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Repairing versus replacing in Longden Common
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Longden Common. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Same prices wherever you are
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Longden Common
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.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Longden Common: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Check the seal every few months
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
Common problems we fix in Longden Common
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage around the waste
- A crack across the base
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
