Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down 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 do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. 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. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

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.

What affects the price in North Somercotes

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for North Somercotes. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Your questions about shower tray repair in North Somercotes

When can I use the shower again?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, typically the following day.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in North Somercotes

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

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

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