Common questions in Whitecross
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Whitecross.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Shower tray repair in Whitecross, done in place
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. If you are dealing with a damaged area around the waste and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Whitecross
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use the extractor fan
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
