About our shower tray repair in Ilmer
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. We are often asked to fix a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste, in ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

When to call us in Ilmer
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips caused during fitting
- Damage around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

What affects the price in Ilmer
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Ilmer, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Ventilate the room after showers
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic

Advice
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What else we do in Ilmer
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
