How we handle shower tray repair in Little Glemham

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. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and scuffs and light scratches, we can generally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Little Glemham. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Little Glemham

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your IP13 postcode.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Repairing versus replacing in Little Glemham

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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