Need shower tray repair in Frogpool?

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we handle shower tray repair in Frogpool

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with a tray that flexes and a damaged area around the waste, we can normally put it right, on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

  • A crack across the base

Our hiring checklist

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Frogpool

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

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

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

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. Quotes are free and no obligation.

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
