Shower tray repair in Kerdiston

Shower tray repair at your home in Kerdiston

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and staining and dullness across the tray.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Kerdiston and across Norfolk.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips caused during fitting

How to compare quotes

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire 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 whole tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What affects the price in Kerdiston

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
