Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Shilton, Oxfordshire
We travel to Shilton for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it. In a village or hamlet like Shilton, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Most clients in Shilton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

About our shower tray repair in Shilton
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for damage around the waste and a dull, stained or worn surface, on cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin.
Somewhere like Shilton, showers are frequently in converted or older buildings, where floors may be timber. A crack is only repaired once we know the tray is firm.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Do you need shower tray repair in Shilton?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Damage around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
If you manage a building such as Carterton Community College, we repair changing-room showers as well as work in homes.

Shilton questions
Do you come out to small places like Shilton?
Yes, villages and hamlets are part of our area.
Can you repair shower trays at a school or business in Shilton?
Yes, commercial work is part of what we do. Send pictures and details of the building.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
