Shower tray repair near Forty Hill

Shower tray repair in Forty Hill without replacing anything

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. If you’re dealing with chips caused during fitting and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can typically put it right.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Forty Hill. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Choosing a repair company

What your shower tray is made of matters

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 is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

FAQs for Forty Hill

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Generally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Landlord and trade work in Forty Hill

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Forty Hill customers choose us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Everything repaired in place

See our full price list.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Store bottles off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

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