Questions from Shippon
Do you come out to small places like Shippon?
Yes, villages and hamlets are part of our area, with the same prices as anywhere else.
Do you work for schools and businesses in Shippon?
Yes, commercial work is part of what we do, and our accreditations include CHAS and Constructionline. Photos and a few details are enough for a quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
When to call us in Shippon
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
Customers usually contact us about:
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Rented homes near Radley station (about 2.8 miles east) change hands often, and repairing shower trays between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use. Somewhere like Shippon needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the shower tray repair comes with us in one trip.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space clear if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. In an older home in a village like Shippon, replacing a shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.
Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We leave the room as we found it
- Everything repaired in place

What affects the price in Shippon
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Ventilate the room after showers
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Landlord and trade work in Shippon
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
