How we handle shower tray repair in Ireton Wood

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with a crack across the base and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Your questions about shower tray repair in Ireton Wood

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Get a moving tray checked

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DE56 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
