Shower tray repair in Potten End, done in place

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Whether it’s a crack across the base and a tray that flexes, we can help.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Potten End

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What does shower tray repair cost?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Repair or replace in Potten End?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

Repairs by material

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.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
