Mortimer's Cross questions

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the exact time when we finish, usually the day after.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

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

Shower tray repair in Mortimer's Cross without replacing anything

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. If you’re dealing with a crack across the base and staining and dullness across the tray, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve 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. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Related advice

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What we are called out for in Mortimer's Cross

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
