Shower tray repair in Knott End-on-Sea without replacing anything

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Common call-outs are for movement when you stand on it and scratches in the surface, on enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Knott End-on-Sea questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. 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. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Repair or replace in Knott End-on-Sea?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Take a look at our prices page.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Landlord and trade work in Knott End-on-Sea

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Knott End-on-Sea, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

What we are called out for in Knott End-on-Sea
