Your questions about shower tray repair in Netherfield
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are there extra charges for Netherfield?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How we handle shower tray repair in Netherfield
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are staining and dullness across the tray and damage from a refit or building work.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Netherfield as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
When to call us in Netherfield
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A crack across the base
- Damage around the waste
- Movement when you stand on it
- Staining and dullness across the tray
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
