Shower tray repair in Hepscott without replacing anything

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Common call-outs are for scuffs and light scratches and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, across cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common questions in Hepscott

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Hepscott?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Hepscott included. Travel is included in the price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
