Trusted shower tray repair in Butler's Cross

Shower tray repair in Butler's Cross without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Typical jobs include a crack across the base and snagging damage in a new bathroom, in cast iron, ceramic and stone resin.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we’re called out for in Butler's Cross

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Movement when you stand on it

Replacing a tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Butler's Cross. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Butler's Cross, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Butler's Cross: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you cover the entire of Buckinghamshire?

All of Buckinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

When can I use the shower again?

Generally the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

What affects the price in Butler's Cross

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Butler's Cross. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

If you’re in Butler's Cross and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. 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 is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

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