Trusted shower tray repair in Eakring

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

How we handle shower tray repair in Eakring

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused during fitting and a damaged area around the waste.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
