Shower tray repair for Nocton homes

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

How we handle shower tray repair in Nocton

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. We work on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips on the edges.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Nocton questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What we’re called out for in Nocton

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How your room will be protected
  • Who will actually do the work
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What affects the price in Nocton

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Nocton. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
