Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lask Edge

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Lask Edge

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Cracks running from the waste

Comparing quotes

  • How your room will be protected
  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Common questions in Lask Edge

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you come to Lask Edge?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Lask Edge and the rest of Staffordshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lask Edge. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
