Shower tray repair in Old Beetley

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Shower tray repair in Old Beetley without replacing anything

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. If you are dealing with cracks running from the waste and staining and dullness across the tray, we can help, on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Old Beetley: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Old Beetley

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Old Beetley. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

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

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

When to call us in Old Beetley

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A cracked shower tray

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
