Shower tray repair in Buckland, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We regularly repair ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips caused during fitting.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Buckland

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the entire UK

Read our pricing.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in Buckland get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What we are called out for in Buckland

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that flexes
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • How soon you can use it again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
