Book shower tray repair in Lee Gate

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

About our shower tray repair in Lee Gate

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and chipped corners or rims.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What affects the price in Lee Gate

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We ensure 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. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Do you need shower tray repair in Lee Gate?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Common reasons people in Lee Gate contact us include:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips on the edges
  • Movement when you stand on it

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Lee Gate

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

When can I use the shower again?

Typically the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
