Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Moulsecoomb

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, usually along the edges or by the waste.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Moulsecoomb?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Moulsecoomb customers choose us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Acrylic

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

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron

Work for landlords and builders
