About our shower tray repair in Harlaxton

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We work on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are staining and dullness across the tray and movement when you stand on it.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Harlaxton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Harlaxton questions

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are there extra charges for Harlaxton?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Most customers in Harlaxton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Harlaxton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

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

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t 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.
