What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We make sure 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. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

About our shower tray repair in Kingstone

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s chips caused during fitting and movement when you stand on it, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Kingstone

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, 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.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

What we’re called out for in Kingstone

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
