Common questions in Shallcross
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there a guarantee?

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Shallcross
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips caused during fitting
- A cracked shower tray
- A damaged area around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- How soon you can use it again
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job

Repairing versus replacing in Shallcross
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- One price list for the whole UK
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Landlord and trade work in Shallcross
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shallcross use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Check the seal every few months
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
