Shower tray repair near Foxwist Green

Shower tray repair in Foxwist Green without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. We are frequently asked to fix cracks running from the waste and scratches in the surface, across acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common problems we fix in Foxwist Green

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches in the surface

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Foxwist Green questions

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do you come to Foxwist Green?

We do. We send a technician to Foxwist Green for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
