Shower tray repair at your home in Crumbles

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include chips or cracks by the plughole and chipped corners or rims, in acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Crumbles

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you cover the entire of East Sussex?

We cover the whole UK, including Crumbles and the rest of East Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

Materials we repair

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

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Crumbles. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Crumbles. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

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. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
