Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Ventilate the room after showers

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Fortuneswell

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job.

Landlord and trade work in Fortuneswell
