Shower tray repair for Knowl Hill homes

What we’re called out for in Knowl Hill

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

10 questions to ask before booking

Shower tray repair at your home in Knowl Hill

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are movement when you stand on it and chips on the edges.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Knowl Hill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Repairing versus replacing in Knowl Hill

Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
