Common questions in Tilehurst
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tilehurst
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray broken in more than one place
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Check the seal every few months
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RG31 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repairing versus replacing in Tilehurst
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

When to call us in Tilehurst

- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price covers travel

- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- 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.
How to prepare

- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
