Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Thorndon Cross. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Thorndon Cross, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Shower tray repair in Thorndon Cross, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about scratches in the surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we cannot put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common problems we fix in Thorndon Cross
Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cracks running from the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole

Landlord and trade work in Thorndon Cross
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse away soap after showering
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
