Shower tray repair in and around Ludworth: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chips on the edges
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
For a price in Ludworth, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
How we handle shower tray repair in Ludworth
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Whether it’s a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage around the waste, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Get a moving tray checked
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Store bottles off the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Ludworth: your questions answered
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Ludworth.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you work in Ludworth?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Ludworth. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
