Shower tray repair in Broomhouse without replacing anything

We repair plenty of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. Common call-outs are for a tray that flexes and edge chips from dropped bottles, across acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

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 the same day in most cases.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Broomhouse, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Broomhouse questions

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do you come to Broomhouse?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Broomhouse. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How soon can you come?

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

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What we are called out for in Broomhouse

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A crack across the base
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface

Before you book anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
