Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Elslack

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A crack across the base
  • Damage around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How to look after the finish
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before booking

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Elslack. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Elslack

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you come to Elslack?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Elslack. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Elslack. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
