Common problems we fix in Plompton

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Damage around the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Why Plompton clients choose us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Plompton. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Most customers in Plompton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
