Our hiring checklist

Shower tray repair in Crowcombe Heathfield without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s damage from a refit or building work and a tray that flexes, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Landlord and trade work in Crowcombe Heathfield

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Crowcombe Heathfield: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

Advice

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
