Shower tray repair for Cabus homes

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Shower tray repair at your home in Cabus

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. We are frequently asked to fix movement when you stand on it and a cracked shower tray, in acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What we are called out for in Cabus

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in Cabus, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common questions in Cabus

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How do I book?

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

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • No need to remove anything

See our prices page.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

  • Ceramic
