Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Shower tray repair in Brigstock, done in place

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Whether it’s chips on the edges and movement when you stand on it, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Brigstock

Trays crack mainly because they move: 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:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Movement when you stand on it

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Brigstock questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you cover Brigstock?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Brigstock. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Landlord and trade work in Brigstock

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.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
