Shower tray repair in East Guldeford, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for chipped corners or rims and scratches in the surface, on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

When to call us in East Guldeford

Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A cracked shower tray

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairs by material

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. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Questions from East Guldeford

Do you cover East Guldeford?

We do. We send a technician to East Guldeford for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of East Sussex. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
