Do you need shower tray repair in Little Stanmore?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How to care for the finish

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Repairing versus replacing in Little Stanmore

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. We do not 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.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel

Little Stanmore questions

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it messy?

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

Are there extra charges for Little Stanmore?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.

  1. We make sure 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. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
