How we handle shower tray repair in Bedgebury Cross

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We work on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a damaged area around the waste and cracks running from the waste.

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

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Bedgebury Cross. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

Do you need shower tray repair in Bedgebury Cross?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage around the waste

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Bedgebury Cross questions

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Generally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Landlord and trade work in Bedgebury Cross

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
