How we handle shower tray repair in Mountfield

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with scuffs and light scratches and chips on the edges, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mountfield

If you manage property in Mountfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  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, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Mountfield

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

FAQs for Mountfield

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Mountfield included. Travel is included in the price.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Mountfield. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Mountfield. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most customers in Mountfield get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
