Questions from West Butsfield
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
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.
What we are called out for in West Butsfield
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What prep work is covered
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Fixed prices from your photos

What we can’t put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
