Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we’re called out for in West Howe
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A damaged area around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
- Scuffs and light scratches

- Whether a trained technician does the job

When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Questions from West Howe
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you cover the entire of Bournemouth?
Everywhere in the UK, West Howe included. Travel is included in the price.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you cover West Howe?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to West Howe and the rest of Bournemouth. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Check the seal every few months
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
