What affects the price in Whetstone
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How we handle shower tray repair in Whetstone
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about chips caused during fitting and a tray that flexes.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- 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.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whetstone use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
