Shower tray repair in Knapp, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on stone resin, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and chips or cracks by the plughole.

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

Should you replace it?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Knapp. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Knapp: your questions answered

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

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.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Do you work in Knapp?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Knapp and the rest of Somerset. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Knapp

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
