Shower tray repair at your home in Acton Scott

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. If you’re dealing with staining and dullness across the tray and a tray that flexes, we can normally put it right, on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Acton Scott and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Shropshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Questions from Acton Scott

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do you come to Acton Scott?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Acton Scott for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What affects the price in Acton Scott

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you are in Acton Scott and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Common problems we fix in Acton Scott

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

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

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A crack across the base

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
