Shower tray repair in Alveley, done in place

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches in the surface and a cracked shower tray.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Alveley

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips on the edges

Choosing a repair company

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Alveley and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Alveley

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Alveley

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
