Shower tray repair near Pilsworth

Shower tray repair in Pilsworth, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We work on cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and light scratches and movement when you stand on it.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Pilsworth as everywhere else we work.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

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

Common questions in Pilsworth

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How long does it take to cure?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Store bottles off the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything

See our prices page.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

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

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
