Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Ugley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
How we handle shower tray repair in Ugley
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Our technicians work on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a crack across the base and chips or cracks by the plughole.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check the seal every few months
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- 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
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Do you need shower tray repair in Ugley?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Movement when you stand on it
- A cracked shower tray

Ugley questions
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
