How we handle shower tray repair in Ratley
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that flexes, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Ratley
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Normally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairing versus replacing in Ratley
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ratley
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ratley as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Do you need shower tray repair in Ratley?
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, usually along the edges or by the waste.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What prep work is covered
- How to look after the finish
- Whether they match the colour on site
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Ratley. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Ratley, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy 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 pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Get a moving tray checked
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
