How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we’re called out for in West Overton
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A crack across the base
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A tray that flexes
- Damage from a refit or building work
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

What affects the price in West Overton
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Repairing versus replacing in West Overton
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
