How we handle shower tray repair in East Horrington

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Typical jobs include scratches from cleaning or grit and a tray that flexes, across cast iron, stone resin and acrylic.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in East Horrington and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to East Horrington. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Signs you need shower tray repair in East Horrington

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What preparation is included
  • How to look after the finish

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
