About our shower tray repair in Heartsease

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and scuffs and light scratches, across acrylic, stone resin and cast iron.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Common questions in Heartsease

Do you cover Heartsease?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Heartsease from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

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

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

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

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Heartsease

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you need shower tray repair in Heartsease?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Common reasons people in Heartsease contact us include:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
