How we handle shower tray repair in Langley

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We’re frequently asked to fix damage from a refit or building work and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

  • Enamelled steel

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Ventilate the room after showers

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

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Langley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Langley

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

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

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
