Shower tray repair near Holton

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Shower tray repair in Holton without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for scratches in the surface and damage from a refit or building work, across enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic.

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

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

FAQs for Holton

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you need shower tray repair in Holton?

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Movement when you stand on it

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
