About our shower tray repair in Outlane

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s damage around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, 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. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

FAQs for Outlane

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

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.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you come to Outlane?

We do. Technicians travel to Outlane from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, 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.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Outlane

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

The things customers typically mention when they call include:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips on the edges
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage around the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Outlane use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 normally cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
