Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We work on cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic, and people most often call us about damage from a refit or building work and movement when you stand on it.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

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

Enamelled steel

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

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Denham Street

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Common reasons people in Denham Street contact us are:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

FAQs for Denham Street

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP21 postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Denham Street. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
