Shower tray repair in Gornal

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

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

Shower tray repair in Gornal without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Whether it’s chips on the edges and damage from a refit or building work, we can help.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wolverhampton.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Gornal

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Are there extra charges for Gornal?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Our hiring checklist

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DY3 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
