About our shower tray repair in Frostlane

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are edge chips from dropped bottles and staining and dullness across the tray.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What affects the price in Frostlane

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SO45 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we work on in Frostlane

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Questions from Frostlane

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it messy?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you come to Frostlane?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Frostlane?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SO45 postcode.

Repairing versus replacing in Frostlane

A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No extra charge for your area

See our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Frostlane

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
