Shower tray repair at your home in Heron Quays

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from a refit or building work and cracks running from the waste.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Heron Quays

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Get a moving tray checked

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

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Repairing versus replacing in Heron Quays

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

When to call us in Heron Quays

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Common reasons people in Heron Quays contact us are:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Damage around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that flexes

Before booking anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
