Trusted shower tray repair in Greysouthen

Shower tray repair at your home in Greysouthen

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with a damaged area around the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can usually put it right, on enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

What we work on

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

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Greysouthen. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

For anyone letting property in or around Greysouthen, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Everything repaired in place

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
