Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
What affects the price in Walgherton
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Walgherton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Acrylic

Repair or replace: which is better?

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What else we do in Walgherton
The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Walgherton
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Are there extra charges for Walgherton?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
