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. We are often asked to fix a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage around the waste, on enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron.

In and around Furnace Green, most homes are houses or bungalows, and a shower tray repair is usually a few hours’ work.

Repairing versus replacing in Furnace Green

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. If your shower tray in Furnace Green is sound, a repair is normally the better choice.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Furnace Green customers choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Take a look at our Prices page.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your RH10 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean. In a smaller place like Furnace Green, parking is rarely a problem. If you are down a lane or a long drive, tell us when you book.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space clear if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Related advice

Furnace Green: your questions answered

I let a flat near Three Bridges station. Can you help between tenants?

Of course: pictures and an address are all we need for a price, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.

Do you take on commercial work in Furnace Green?

Yes, we work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, and our accreditations include CHAS and Constructionline. Send photos and details of the building.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Common problems we fix in Furnace Green

Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

The things clients typically mention when they call include:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Damage around the waste
  • A crack across the base

Facilities teams at buildings such as Brook Infant School can book us for changing-room showers too.

Before booking anyone
