About our shower tray repair in Clemenstone

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We are frequently asked to fix scratches in the surface and chipped corners or rims, on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.

Somewhere like Clemenstone, showers are often in converted or older buildings, where timber floors can move. We check the tray is solid before repairing a crack.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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.

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 fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead. For a rural address like Clemenstone, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the shower tray repair, so there is no second trip.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What affects the price in Clemenstone

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Clemenstone. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes cost nothing and you’re under no obligation.
