Shower tray repair in Felsted without replacing anything

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. We work on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and people most often call us about a damaged area around the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CM6 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

When to call us in Felsted

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.

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

  • Chips on the edges
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Felsted: your questions answered

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, normally the day after.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Felsted?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
