What affects the price in Milkwell
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Milkwell. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you are in Milkwell and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Common problems we fix in Milkwell
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chips on the edges
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage from a refit or building work
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Aftercare advice
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Milkwell: your questions answered
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Milkwell?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you cover the whole of Dorset?
Across the UK, so Milkwell is covered. Prices do not change with location.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that moves underfoot
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
