Aftercare tips

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

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

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

FAQs for Bredon

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do you work in Bredon?

We do. Technicians travel to Bredon from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

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 will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bredon

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
