Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Harrold, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Harrold as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Questions from Harrold

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Harrold?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Harrold?

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice
