Shower tray repair near Little Keyford

Do you need shower tray repair in Little Keyford?

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 normally come from dropped bottles.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched

About our shower tray repair in Little Keyford

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s cracks running from the waste and scratches in the surface, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Little Keyford

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

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
