Shower tray repair near Little Harrowden

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

What affects the price in Little Harrowden

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Little Harrowden. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you need shower tray repair in Little Harrowden?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that flexes

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

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