Signs you need shower tray repair in Penge

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that flexes

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 fails, we can still put it right.

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.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

Materials we work on in Penge

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

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

See our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Penge

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Penge included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

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

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
