How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Do you need shower tray repair in Foulby?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The things customers typically mention when they call include:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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.

  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What affects the price in Foulby

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
