Shower tray repair near Ecclesfield

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Shower tray repair in Ecclesfield without replacing anything

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage from a refit or building work.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. 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 pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Common questions in Ecclesfield

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Ecclesfield

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • How to look after the finish
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Ecclesfield

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ecclesfield as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
