Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Common questions in Watton at Stone

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Watton at Stone?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are there extra charges for Watton at Stone?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Read our pricing.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Watton at Stone. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
