Need shower tray repair in Deacon's Hill?

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

About our shower tray repair in Deacon's Hill

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We regularly repair stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new bathroom and chips on the edges.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Deacon's Hill

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Deacon's Hill

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A damaged area around the waste

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
