About our shower tray repair in Inner Avenue

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. If you’re dealing with a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scuffs and light scratches, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repairing versus replacing in Inner Avenue

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally 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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

See our pricing.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

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

Inner Avenue questions

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How long does it take to cure?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Inner Avenue is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
