- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash

- A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Millbrook, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 normally cheaper.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
FAQs for Millbrook
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Are there extra charges for Millbrook?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Millbrook
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
