Shower tray repair for Horeb homes

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry

Shower tray repair in Horeb, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. If you’re dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Horeb

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do I have to be there?

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

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

When to call us in Horeb

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Common reasons people in Horeb contact us include:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A cracked shower tray

10 questions to ask before booking

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
