Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Check the seal every few months

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Osmington

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
