How we handle shower tray repair in Maple End

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re often asked to fix edge chips from dropped bottles and staining and dullness across the tray, in ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Maple End, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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 clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry

Your questions about shower tray repair in Maple End

Do you cover the whole of Essex?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Repairing versus replacing in Maple End

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need shower tray repair in Maple End?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Movement when you stand on it

Before you book anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if they find more damage
