Shower tray repair in Penn without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We work on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches in the surface.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Penn: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

What we are called out for in Penn

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
