Shower tray repair for Hither Green homes

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Shower tray repair in Hither Green without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s scratches in the surface and chips caused during fitting, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

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 are filled and matched to the surface.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Do you need shower tray repair in Hither Green?

Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips caused during fitting

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
