Shower tray repair for Badshot Lea homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Badshot Lea

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the edges and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, across cast iron, stone resin and acrylic.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Badshot Lea questions

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Badshot Lea is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Badshot Lea, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
