What we are called out for in Swinford
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Damage around the waste

Shower tray repair at your home in Swinford
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Common call-outs are for damage around the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit, on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

FAQs for Swinford
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oxfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- 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.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
