How we handle shower tray repair in Gadlys

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and people most often call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches from cleaning or grit.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Gadlys

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that flexes
  • A crack across the base

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about shower tray repair in Gadlys

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Do you come to Gadlys?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Gadlys. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Gadlys, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

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.

For anyone letting property in or around Gadlys, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
