Binsted questions

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your BN18 postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Shower tray repair in Binsted without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Typical jobs include cracks running from the waste and scratches in the surface, across acrylic, cast iron and stone resin.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Binsted and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

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.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Binsted

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

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Binsted

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Questions to ask before you book

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
