Shower Tray Repair in Derbyshire

Our shower tray repair service in Derbyshire

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Our technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

What it costs in Derbyshire

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairing versus replacing

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Common questions in Derbyshire

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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.
