How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Gedling. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Common questions in Gedling

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Nottinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
