Trusted shower tray repair in Gosberton Cheal

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

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

Shower tray repair at your home in Gosberton Cheal

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for snagging damage in a new bathroom and edge chips from dropped bottles, on ceramic, stone resin and acrylic.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Gosberton Cheal, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Gosberton Cheal

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, usually the day after.

Common problems we fix in Gosberton Cheal

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A crack across the base
