The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What else we do in Westcot
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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot

What we work on
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Westcot
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Westcot and the surrounding area
Westcot is about 4 miles west of Wantage, in Oxfordshire. We work in every kind of home, old or new, large or small, plus businesses and rented homes. Westcot is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire we cover. You can also see our page for London, about 61 miles away.
All of OX12 is within our area, from the main roads to the quietest streets. If you’re just outside Westcot, we cover Sparsholt (1 mile east), Kingston Lisle (1 mile west), Woolstone (3 miles west), Upper Lambourn (5 miles south) and Sheepdrove (5 miles south).

Local landmarks in Westcot
Our customers here include homes close to Church of the Holy Rood and The Ridgeway Church of England (C) Primary School and the streets around them. Well-known places in the area include Faringdon Day Hospital (5.8 miles north-west) and Uffington Museum (2.5 miles west). Not far away are Rams Hill and Letcombe Valley.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Westcot
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What affects the price in Westcot
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Westcot. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
If you are in Westcot and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
