Shower tray repair for Little Hadham homes

Shower tray repair in Little Hadham, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. We’re often asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and cracks running from the waste, across ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Materials we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole 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 following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

When to call us in Little Hadham

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically along the edges or by the waste.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A cracked shower tray

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Questions from Little Hadham

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Landlord and trade work in Little Hadham

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.
