What your shower tray is made of matters

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.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Repairing versus replacing in Frampton

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Frampton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Frampton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Frampton

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Frampton?
