How to compare quotes

Shower tray repair in Clifton without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. If you’re dealing with a crack across the base and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  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, generally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Clifton. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Store bottles off the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Questions from Clifton

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do you cover Clifton?

We do. Technicians travel to Clifton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Clifton and the rest of Central Bedfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
