Shower tray repair near Harmer Green

Shower tray repair at your home in Harmer Green

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We are frequently asked to fix snagging damage in a new bathroom and a damaged area around the waste, on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Harmer Green

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you cover Harmer Green?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Harmer Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is it messy?

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

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Harmer Green

Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A cracked shower tray

Before you book anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
