Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

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

About our shower tray repair in Horsington Marsh

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Whether it’s chips caused during fitting and a crack across the base, we can help, on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

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

Horsington Marsh questions

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How long does it take to cure?

Usually the day after. We will confirm before we leave.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Repair or replace in Horsington Marsh?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Choosing a repair company

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Horsington Marsh

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Horsington Marsh, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.
