Shower tray repair for Coleham homes

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Same prices wherever you are

Shower tray repair in Coleham, done in place

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

When to call us in Coleham

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Coleham, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
