What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What we’re called out for in Longley

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered

What affects the price in Longley

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Longley. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
