How we handle shower tray repair in High Halstow

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We are frequently asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and a cracked shower tray, in stone resin, cast iron and acrylic.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

FAQs for High Halstow

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there any odour?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures 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.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

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

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
