Shower tray repair in Chittering without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for a damaged area around the waste and a tray that flexes, across enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CB25 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Repair or replace in Chittering?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why Chittering clients choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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 frequently lifts.

Chittering questions

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you cover Chittering?

We do. We send a technician to Chittering for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you need shower tray repair in Chittering?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
