How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Ventilate the room after showers

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

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

About our shower tray repair in Jericho

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused during fitting and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Jericho

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Jericho as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

FAQs for Jericho

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Jericho included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
