Need shower tray repair in Piddington?

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Shower tray repair at your home in Piddington

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and scratches in the surface.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry
