Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Halvergate

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we are called out for in Halvergate

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Damage around the waste

Comparing quotes

  • Aftercare advice
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
