How we handle shower tray repair in Newtown Unthank
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you are dealing with movement when you stand on it and a damaged area around the waste, we can normally put it right.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Newtown Unthank
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What affects the price in Newtown Unthank
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Common problems we fix in Newtown Unthank
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage around the waste
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newtown Unthank
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace in Newtown Unthank?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Colour-matched on site
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
