Signs you need shower tray repair in Portslade

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

If you manage a building such as Peter Gladwin Primary School, we repair changing-room showers as well as work in homes.

10 questions to ask before you book

Shower tray repair in Portslade without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you have scuffs and light scratches and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can usually put it right, on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin alike.

In and around Portslade, walk-in showers and shower rooms are common in bungalows. If the tray is firm, any crack or chip can be repaired in place.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

What we work on

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

Questions from Portslade

Do you take on commercial work in Portslade?

Yes, commercial work is part of what we do, and our accreditations include CHAS and Constructionline. Photos and a few details are enough for a quote.

Do you work for landlords with property near Fishersgate station?

Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do, and a repair between tenants is generally quicker than replacing.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Portslade?

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

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. In a smaller place like Portslade, parking is rarely a problem. If you are down a lane or a long drive, tell us when you book.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

Related advice

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. In a smaller place like Portslade, getting trades out for a full replacement can take time to arrange. A repair needs just one visit.

Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our Prices page.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. 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. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
