About our shower tray repair in Balmerlawn

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  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 whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • No need to remove anything

Read our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Balmerlawn. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SO42 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Balmerlawn: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Balmerlawn?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will there be a smell?

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

Do you come to Balmerlawn?

We do. We send a technician to Balmerlawn for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

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