Do you need shower tray repair in Hassocks?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scratches in the surface

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Hassocks?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Store bottles off the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Repairs by material

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.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hassocks. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BN6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Common questions in Hassocks

Do you work in Hassocks?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Hassocks from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
