About our shower tray repair in Heart's Delight

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and chips or cracks by the plughole, across cast iron, acrylic and ceramic.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Do you need shower tray repair in Heart's Delight?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Common reasons people in Heart's Delight contact us include:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

FAQs for Heart's Delight

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can landlords book you?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Will it make a mess?

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

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Heart's Delight

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

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

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

What affects the price in Heart's Delight

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your ME10 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Heart's Delight

Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not 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.

What you get with us

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Store bottles off the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
