Trusted shower tray repair in Parkmill

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

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

Shower tray repair in Parkmill without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Typical jobs include a dull, stained or worn surface and cracks running from the waste, in enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Do you need shower tray repair in Parkmill?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

See our prices page.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Your questions about shower tray repair in Parkmill

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
