Shower tray repair in Letchworth Garden City without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We are frequently asked to fix cracks running from the waste and a tray that flexes, across enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

When to call us in Letchworth Garden City

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A cracked shower tray

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What aftercare is recommended

Your questions about shower tray repair in Letchworth Garden City

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Do you work in Letchworth Garden City?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Letchworth Garden City for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Letchworth Garden City. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Letchworth Garden City, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.
