Shower tray repair in Longcross

Shower tray repair in Longcross without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re often asked to fix scratches from cleaning or grit and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Longcross and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

FAQs for Longcross

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you come to Longcross?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Longcross for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally the next day. We will confirm before we leave.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

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

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

What we are called out for in Longcross

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Cracks running from the waste

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repair or replace in Longcross?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good.
