Common questions in West Reading
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
About our shower tray repair in West Reading
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and a dull, stained or worn surface, in stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Materials we work on in West Reading
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
