Shower tray repair near Leafield

Shower tray repair in Leafield, done in place

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and staining and dullness across the tray.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

How to compare quotes

Leafield questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Do the materials smell?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Leafield included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Repairing versus replacing in Leafield

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
