Aftercare tips

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

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Shower tray repair in Fingest, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches from cleaning or grit and chips or cracks by the plughole.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common problems we fix in Fingest

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scuffs and light scratches

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
