About our shower tray repair in Broom Hill

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Common call-outs are for cracks running from the waste and staining and dullness across the tray, across stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Broom Hill

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • A crack across the base
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips caused during fitting

Before you book anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why Broom Hill customers choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
