Shower tray repair for Kiln Green homes

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Kiln Green. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Shower tray repair in Kiln Green, done in place

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’ll explain what we find. We’re often asked to fix damage around the waste and a crack across the base, across cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Kiln Green

Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Everything repaired in place

See our pricing.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Kiln Green questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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