Shower tray repair in Abington without replacing anything

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. We regularly repair acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and people most often call us about edge chips from dropped bottles and staining and dullness across the tray.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic

What we’re called out for in Abington

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically along the edges or by the waste.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that flexes
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
