Shower tray repair for Postwick homes

Postwick: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, generally the day after.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Shower tray repair in Postwick, done in place

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We are frequently asked to fix damage around the waste and chipped corners or rims, on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Repairs by material

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 popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Postwick

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Postwick

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • How changes to the job are handled

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
