Shower Tray Repair across Staffordshire

Shower tray repair at your home in Staffordshire

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Staffordshire. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Staffordshire: your questions answered

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Are you accredited?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
