Shower tray repair in Eddington, done in place

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are movement when you stand on it and edge chips from dropped bottles.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When to call us in Eddington

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips on the edges
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Movement when you stand on it

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How we price shower tray repair

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eddington

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Eddington questions

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you work in Eddington?

We do. We send a technician to Eddington for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How long does it take to cure?

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

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
