What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Backwell

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Questions from Backwell

How long before I can shower?

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

Is it messy?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. 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.
