Shower tray repair near Ormesby St Michael

Shower tray repair in Ormesby St Michael, done in place

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We regularly repair acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about edge chips from dropped bottles and a dull, stained or worn surface.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Questions from Ormesby St Michael

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Ormesby St Michael.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it messy?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

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

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

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Ormesby St Michael?

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Damage around the waste
  • A crack across the base

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
