About our shower tray repair in Blue Anchor

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. If you’re dealing with a crack across the base and movement when you stand on it, we can normally put it right.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

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 price the job the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repairing versus replacing in Blue Anchor

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Blue Anchor

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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

FAQs for Blue Anchor

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Blue Anchor?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Blue Anchor

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
