Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Lem Hill questions

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

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Lem Hill and the rest of Shropshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Do the materials smell?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Lem Hill

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lem Hill

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common problems we fix in Lem Hill

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips on the edges

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who will actually do the work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
