About our shower tray repair in Knollbury

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Typical jobs include cracks running from the waste and a dull, stained or worn surface, in ceramic, stone resin and acrylic.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What we are called out for in Knollbury

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that flexes

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Knollbury: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Knollbury?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NP26 postcode.

Do you cover Knollbury?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Knollbury from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Repair or replace in Knollbury?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
