Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Catmore

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Are there extra charges for Catmore?

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

When can I use the shower again?

Generally the next day. We will confirm before we leave.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you need shower tray repair in Catmore?

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Catmore

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

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

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
