Shower tray repair near Ponders End

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

How we handle shower tray repair in Ponders End

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. If you’re dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and cracks running from the waste, we can help, on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Ponders End

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before booking

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

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

What affects the price in Ponders End

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Ponders End questions

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you work in Ponders End?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Ponders End from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

Materials we work on in Ponders End

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

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
