Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Common call-outs are for damage around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What affects the price in Marsh Benham

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
