How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit

Advice
Shower tray repair at your home in Ravenshead
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for a cracked shower tray and chips caused during fitting, in enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Nottinghamshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Ravenshead
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
