How we handle shower tray repair in Barnwood

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. If you’re dealing with a damaged area around the waste and damage from a refit or building work, we can generally put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Signs you need shower tray repair in Barnwood

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Barnwood

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

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

Questions from Barnwood

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, generally the day after.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Barnwood.

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
