Shower tray repair for Nordens homes

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we handle shower tray repair in Nordens

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and chips caused during fitting.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Common questions in Nordens

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will you leave a mess?

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

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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