What affects the price in Whitehouse
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Whitehouse. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Whitehouse
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, 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 booking.
Why Whitehouse customers choose us
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Work done at your home or business

Whitehouse questions
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Report any creaking or movement early
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What we’re called out for in Whitehouse
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chips on the edges
- Scuffs and light scratches

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
