Shower tray repair at your home in Great Chart

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 repair lasts. If you’re dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a crack across the base, we can normally put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Great Chart and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Great Chart: your questions answered

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Great Chart is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Great Chart

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Great Chart. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • The material, if you know it

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Great Chart, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Chart

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Chart as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

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