Shower tray repair at your home in Hanley Castle

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that flexes.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Hanley Castle

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Before we arrive

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

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

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
