About our shower tray repair in Raunds
The first thing we do is check the tray: 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 damage around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, in ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repair or replace in Raunds?
A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

- A crack across the base
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scratches in the surface
What your quote should include

What affects the price in Raunds
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Raunds. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
If you’re in Raunds and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Raunds
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Raunds use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Northamptonshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
