Shower tray repair at your home in Petteridge

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 so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with chipped corners or rims and staining and dullness across the tray, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Petteridge questions

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Petteridge is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

What we’re called out for in Petteridge

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Damage around the waste

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Petteridge, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our prices page.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
