Shower tray repair at your home in Bitterscote

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. We are often asked to fix snagging damage in a new bathroom and chips or cracks by the plughole, in enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

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

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Bitterscote?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bitterscote. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area

Landlord and trade work in Bitterscote

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

FAQs for Bitterscote

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Can landlords book you?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

When to call us in Bitterscote

  • Damage around the waste

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
