  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Our hiring checklist

Shower tray repair in Aston, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new bathroom and movement when you stand on it, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Your questions about shower tray repair in Aston

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Aston and the rest of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Aston?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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