What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- 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 normally usable the day after.

About our shower tray repair in Swannington
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. We work on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Swannington: your questions answered
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Swannington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Everything repaired in place
- A fixed quote before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
Most clients in Swannington get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When to call us in Swannington
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
Look out for these signs:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A crack across the base
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
