Shower tray repair in Ewelme without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Common call-outs are for a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and snagging damage in a new bathroom, in acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

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

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Do you need shower tray repair in Ewelme?

Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • A crack across the base

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Ewelme?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
