Signs you need shower tray repair in Lower Arncott
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.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A tray that flexes
Before booking anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- What preparation is included

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Common questions in Lower Arncott
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long does it take to cure?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Lower Arncott included. Travel is included in the price.
Repair or replace in Lower Arncott?
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What else we do in Lower Arncott
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Lower Arncott. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Arncott as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
