Shower tray repair at your home in Aldrington

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We’re frequently asked to fix scuffs and light scratches and a cracked shower tray, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.

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

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Brighton and Hove and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

When to call us in Aldrington

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A damaged area around the waste

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

FAQs for Aldrington

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are there extra charges for Aldrington?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Aldrington?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your BN3 postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you cover the whole of Brighton and Hove?

Across the UK, and that includes Aldrington. Prices do not change with location.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  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. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Ventilate the room after showers

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

How we price shower tray repair
