Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • One visit for most repairs

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Millbank

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
