Shower tray repair in Hennock

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Shower tray repair in Hennock, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Common call-outs are for cracks running from the waste and a dull, stained or worn surface, in enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

When to call us in Hennock

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hennock, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
