How we handle shower tray repair in Markham
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a dull, stained or worn surface and scratches from cleaning or grit.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Markham and across Caerphilly.

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What affects the price in Markham
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Markham. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Markham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
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.
Markham questions
Are there extra charges for Markham?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What areas do you cover?
All of Caerphilly, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Landlord and trade work in Markham
For anyone letting property in or around Markham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Common problems we fix in Markham
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
