Shower tray repair near Nettleton Hill

Shower tray repair in Nettleton Hill, done in place

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We’re often asked to fix scuffs and light scratches and edge chips from dropped bottles, across acrylic, stone resin and ceramic.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Nettleton Hill

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Nettleton Hill

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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.

What affects the price in Nettleton Hill

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HD7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Nettleton Hill questions

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

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

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
