Shower tray repair near Didling

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Shower tray repair at your home in Didling

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scuffs and light scratches.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Didling and across West Sussex.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When to call us in Didling

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A crack across the base

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Get a moving tray checked

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What affects the price in Didling

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Didling: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Repair or replace in Didling?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Didling. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
