  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Our hiring checklist

Shower tray repair in Kingsclere without replacing anything

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. If you’re dealing with damage around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help, on enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Kingsclere. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  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 colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

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.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

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