Shower tray repair near Horsford

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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

How we handle shower tray repair in Horsford

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and a damaged area around the waste, we can help, on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Repair or replace in Horsford?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Take a look at our full price list.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Horsford

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Horsford?

Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Related advice

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Horsford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
