Shower tray repair for Parkfield homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we handle shower tray repair in Parkfield

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include chipped corners or rims and movement when you stand on it, in ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Parkfield

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Common reasons people in Parkfield contact us are:

  • Damage around the waste

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace in Parkfield?

Replacing a tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Materials we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

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