Shower tray repair near Poffley End

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

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

About our shower tray repair in Poffley End

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Typical jobs include a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, in enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

Poffley End questions

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Poffley End and the rest of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Poffley End

For anyone letting property in or around Poffley End, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Poffley End. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
