Shower tray repair in Nuthurst

About our shower tray repair in Nuthurst

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you’re dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and a crack across the base, we can help, on ceramic, stone resin and acrylic alike.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Common questions in Nuthurst

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?

The entire UK, including all of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What we are called out for in Nuthurst

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Cracks running from the waste

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Same prices wherever you are

Read our prices page.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Nuthurst. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
