Trusted shower tray repair in Harston

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Shower tray repair in Harston without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s a damaged area around the waste and cracks running from the waste, we can generally put it right, on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Harston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic

Your questions about shower tray repair in Harston

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish, normally the day after.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you come to Harston?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Harston from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will it make a mess?

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

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

Landlord and trade work in Harston

If you manage property in Harston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Harston use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
