Trusted shower tray repair in Brookenby

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

How we handle shower tray repair in Brookenby

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s a cracked shower tray and a damaged area around the waste, we can usually put it right, on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Brookenby

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.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips on the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Brookenby questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

When can I use the shower again?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, normally the following day.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you work in Brookenby?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Brookenby and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repairing versus replacing in Brookenby

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Brookenby. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
