How we handle shower tray repair in Paddock

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We work on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and cracks running from the waste.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

FAQs for Paddock

How much does shower tray repair cost in Paddock?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

When to call us in Paddock

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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 following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Prices and what affects them

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
