About our shower tray repair in Bricket Wood

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with chips caused during fitting and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron alike.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Bricket Wood

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you come to Bricket Wood?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Bricket Wood. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How do I book?

When to call us in Bricket Wood

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Look out for these signs:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • How to care for the finish
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why Bricket Wood clients choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are

Read our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
