Shower tray repair at your home in Peterborough

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. We are often asked to fix a damaged area around the waste and chips on the edges, across acrylic, cast iron and ceramic.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

When to call us in Peterborough

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Choosing a repair company

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PE2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Peterborough

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Peterborough is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

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

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Peterborough

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
