What affects the price in Oundle
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Oundle. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Shower tray repair at your home in Oundle
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips or cracks by the plughole, on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Repairing versus replacing in Oundle
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Cast iron

Oundle questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Oundle.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
