What affects the price in Shotteswell
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Shotteswell. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, 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.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
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.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- 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 the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OX17 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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 usually cheaper.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
When to call us in Shotteswell
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A crack across the base
- Chips on the edges
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether a trained technician does the job
