Landlords, agents and businesses in Widewall
If you manage property in Widewall, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Widewall. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Check the seal every few months
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Questions from Widewall
How long does it take to cure?
Generally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
