Lower Shelton: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you come to Lower Shelton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lower Shelton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover the whole of Bedford Borough?
We cover the entire UK, including Lower Shelton and the rest of Bedford Borough. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix 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.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When to call us in Lower Shelton
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

- A damaged area around the waste
- Chips on the edges
- A cracked shower tray
- Staining and dullness across the tray

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
