How we handle shower tray repair in Water Oakley
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. Common call-outs are for chips caused during fitting and scratches in the surface, across cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Water Oakley and across Windsor and Maidenhead.

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Repair or replace in Water Oakley?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Are there extra charges for Water Oakley?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, usually the following day.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Water Oakley?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you cover Water Oakley?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Water Oakley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Water Oakley
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scratches in the surface
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Movement when you stand on it
Before booking anyone
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
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 can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
