Shower tray repair at your home in Herne Pound

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked shower tray and staining and dullness across the tray.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Herne Pound

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most clients in Herne Pound get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is 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 a day for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Herne Pound

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

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

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
