Shower tray repair near Cross Inn

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Your questions about shower tray repair in Cross Inn

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

When can I use the shower again?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, normally the next day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Rhondda Cynon Taff and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Cross Inn

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.

Look out for these signs:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A cracked shower tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

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.

Ceramic

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