Shower tray repair near Par

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Par. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Shower tray repair in Par without replacing anything

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We regularly repair ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips caused during fitting.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Par and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why Par customers choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What we cannot put right

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

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • 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.

Materials we work on in Par

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

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use the extractor fan

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Par?

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A crack across the base
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
