Shower tray repair near Fontwell

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Shower tray repair at your home in Fontwell

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about chipped corners or rims and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Fontwell and across West Sussex.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Fontwell, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we are called out for in Fontwell

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

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

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A crack across the base
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A damaged area around the waste

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
