Shower tray repair near East Haddon

Shower tray repair in East Haddon without replacing anything

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around East Haddon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the area is dry

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

East Haddon: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How long before I can shower?

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

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work in East Haddon?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. 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.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
