What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive

Your questions about shower tray repair in Witchampton
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Are there extra charges for Witchampton?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start 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.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Witchampton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
