Shower tray repair for Merton homes

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Shower tray repair in Merton, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about chips or cracks by the plughole and a crack across the base.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Merton and across Norfolk.

Repairing versus replacing in Merton

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Merton

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Merton. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP25 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
