About our shower tray repair in Greatworth

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about chips on the edges and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Greatworth and across Northamptonshire.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Greatworth

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Northamptonshire.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

How long does it take to cure?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Northamptonshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Greatworth?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Will it make a mess?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Greatworth. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Common problems we fix in Greatworth

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage around the waste
  • Cracks running from the waste

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Repairs by material

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 can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
