About our shower tray repair in Lewstone

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t 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 regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a crack across the base and scratches in the surface.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lewstone as everywhere else we work.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Lewstone

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Herefordshire.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What information do you need?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

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 pictures, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Lewstone

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page.

What your shower tray is made of matters

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 feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your HR9 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we’re called out for in Lewstone

Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A crack across the base
