Questions from Whitley
How long does it take to cure?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Wiltshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Shower tray repair in Whitley, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are scratches from cleaning or grit and a damaged area around the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

What else we do in Whitley
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One visit for most repairs

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Ventilate the room after showers
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
