Common problems we fix in Milton
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.
Common reasons people in Milton contact us include:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A crack across the base
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

What affects the price in Milton
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- No need to remove anything
- Most jobs done in one visit

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Milton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Milton questions
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Milton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
