Shower tray repair in Nether Street

About our shower tray repair in Nether Street

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for a crack across the base and scuffs and light scratches, across enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

10 questions to ask before booking

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

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 or gets worse.

Nether Street: your questions answered

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do you cover Nether Street?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Nether Street for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can I fix it myself?

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. 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.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
