Shower tray repair for Little Venice homes

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Little Venice

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

Shower tray repair in Little Venice without replacing anything

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. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips caused during fitting.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Little Venice as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months

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

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Repairing versus replacing in Little Venice

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Little Venice. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
