Shower tray repair at your home in Lower Copthurst

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We work on ceramic, stone resin and acrylic, and people most often call us about scuffs and light scratches and chips on the edges.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Signs you need shower tray repair in Lower Copthurst

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chips on the edges
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Before you book anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

FAQs for Lower Copthurst

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How long does it take to cure?

We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the day after.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  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

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
