Trusted shower tray repair in Caistor St Edmund

Shower tray repair in Caistor St Edmund, done in place

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. We’re often asked to fix a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and cracks running from the waste, in ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Do you need shower tray repair in Caistor St Edmund?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that flexes

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
