Shower tray repair near Bradford Peverell

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Shower tray repair at your home in Bradford Peverell

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips on the edges.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Repairing versus replacing in Bradford Peverell

A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Questions from Bradford Peverell

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Are there extra charges for Bradford Peverell?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  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. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
