Common questions in Pontesford
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Pontesford included. Travel is included in the price.
Shower tray repair at your home in Pontesford
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with chips on the edges and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Repair or replace in Pontesford?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
Do you need shower tray repair in Pontesford?
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chipped corners or rims
- A damaged area around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
