Shower tray repair for Beckford homes

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Shower tray repair in Beckford, done in place

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and damage from a refit or building work, we can usually put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

Beckford: your questions answered

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How long before I can shower?

Usually the day after. We will confirm before we leave.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Common problems we fix in Beckford

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • A crack across the base
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused during fitting

Before you book anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Aftercare advice
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
