Shower tray repair in Newmarket

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

About our shower tray repair in Newmarket

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. If you’re dealing with a cracked shower tray and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can normally put it right.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you’re in Newmarket and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

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

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.

10 questions to ask before you book

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Newmarket: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do you work in Newmarket?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Newmarket from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

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

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Should you replace it?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
