About our shower tray repair in Bradwell on Sea

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. If you have cracks running from the waste and damage around the waste, we can generally put it right.

In a village like Bradwell on Sea, showers are often later additions to older homes, and we always check the tray’s support first.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. In an older home in a village like Bradwell on Sea, replacing a shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.

Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Do you need shower tray repair in Bradwell on Sea?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Facilities teams at buildings such as St Cedd's Church of England Primary School can book us for changing-room showers too.

What your quote should include

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Bradwell on Sea

Repairs from £95. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job 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. Somewhere like Bradwell on Sea needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the shower tray repair comes with us in one trip.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
