Need shower tray repair in Burcott?

Repair or replace in Burcott?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour-matched on site

Shower tray repair in Burcott without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Our technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about a cracked shower tray and chips on the edges.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Burcott

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Common questions in Burcott

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Burcott?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

Surfaces we repair

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