Shower tray repair in New Copse

About our shower tray repair in New Copse

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are staining and dullness across the tray and movement when you stand on it.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Do you need shower tray repair in New Copse?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Movement when you stand on it

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from New Copse

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Are there extra charges for New Copse?

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

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in New Copse?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your GU34 postcode.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Will you leave a mess?

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

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in New Copse, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairing versus replacing in New Copse

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
