Shower tray repair in Langley, done in place

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. We regularly repair cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a crack across the base and staining and dullness across the tray.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

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

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

FAQs for Langley

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SL3 postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Langley

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

What we’re called out for in Langley

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips on the edges
  • A crack across the base
  • Damage from a refit or building work
