Trusted shower tray repair in Parnwell

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Shower tray repair in Parnwell, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Common call-outs are for chips caused during fitting and scratches in the surface, on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Common problems we fix in Parnwell

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

Parnwell questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Repairing versus replacing in Parnwell

A new shower tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
