Trusted shower tray repair in Illey

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

About our shower tray repair in Illey

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Common call-outs are for chips or cracks by the plughole and a crack across the base, across stone resin, acrylic and cast iron.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Illey as everywhere else we work.

Do you need shower tray repair in Illey?

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

Look out for these signs:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A damaged area around the waste

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Read our pricing.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Illey

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What affects the price in Illey

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
