Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

About our shower tray repair in North Featherstone

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with movement when you stand on it and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

FAQs for North Featherstone

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, normally the next day.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One price list for the entire UK

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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 any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

What we work on

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