Trusted shower tray repair in Caenby

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

About our shower tray repair in Caenby

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Common call-outs are for cracks running from the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit, in enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Caenby. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Caenby. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
