How we handle shower tray repair in Monk Sherborne

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches from cleaning or grit.

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

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairing versus replacing in Monk Sherborne

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Do you need shower tray repair in Monk Sherborne?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.

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

  • A crack across the base
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Monk Sherborne: your questions answered

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Hampshire.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • 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, and the damage below is not visible.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Stone resin

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

Honest limits

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

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
