Shower tray repair in Lower Hook

How we handle shower tray repair in Lower Hook

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 will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s a damaged area around the waste and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can help.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Lower Hook

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Lower Hook

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

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

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Cracks running from the waste

Before booking anyone

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

  • What happens if they find more damage

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
