Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use the extractor fan
- Get a moving tray checked
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Raby Mere. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Raby Mere. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole shower tray
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
If you are in Raby Mere and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
