Shower tray repair near Eriswell

Should you replace it?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page.

How we handle shower tray repair in Eriswell

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 enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused during fitting and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For anyone letting property in or around Eriswell, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Eriswell

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP27 postcode.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
