About our shower tray repair in Fareham Common

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s scratches from cleaning or grit and a cracked shower tray, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

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

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

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 for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for 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 match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Fareham Common questions

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover Fareham Common?

We do. Technicians travel to Fareham Common from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How long before I can shower?

Typically the day after. We will confirm before we leave.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hampshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
