Shower tray repair in Boars Hill without replacing anything

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. If you’re dealing with damage from a refit or building work and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can typically put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

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.

Common problems we fix in Boars Hill

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How your room will be protected
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace in Boars Hill?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
