For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Moira use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How we handle shower tray repair in Moira
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Common call-outs are for scratches from cleaning or grit and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Moira questions
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
Most clients in Moira get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Moira
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire shower tray
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
