How we handle shower tray repair in Fivelanes

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We work on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are movement when you stand on it and scuffs and light scratches.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Fivelanes. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fivelanes as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Common questions in Fivelanes

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you need shower tray repair in Fivelanes?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chips caused during fitting

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Read our full price list.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
