Shower tray repair in Bythorn without replacing anything

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. If you’re dealing with scuffs and light scratches and a damaged area around the waste, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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 usually the cheaper route.

When to call us in Bythorn

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chipped corners or rims

Choosing a repair company

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Your questions about shower tray repair in Bythorn

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Honest limits

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

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

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