FAQs for Upton
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
When can I use the shower again?
We will give you the curing time on the day, normally the following day.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

What else we do in Upton
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Do you need shower tray repair in Upton?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Clients generally contact us about:
- A damaged area around the waste
- A crack across the base
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scratches in the surface
What to look for in a quote
- How to look after the finish
- Who will actually do the work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
