About our shower tray repair in Caister-on-Sea

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include scuffs and light scratches and movement when you stand on it, on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron.

Around Caister-on-Sea, showers are frequently in bungalows and houses, including walk-in showers. A cracked or worn tray can be repaired without lifting it.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

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, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

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

Ceramic

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together. In a smaller place like Caister-on-Sea, parking is rarely a problem. If you’re down a lane or a long drive, tell us when you book and we’ll plan for it.

  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, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
