Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Wendlebury: your questions answered
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you need shower tray repair in Wendlebury?
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Cracks running from the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Aftercare advice
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Store bottles off the tray
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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 shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OX25 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
