Shower tray repair near North Chailey

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Shower tray repair in North Chailey without replacing anything

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are staining and dullness across the tray and chips or cracks by the plughole.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in North Chailey

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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One price list for the entire UK

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

How quickly can you book me in?

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Generally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry
