About our shower tray repair in Dibden Purlieu

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We work on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and light scratches and staining and dullness across the tray.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
