About our shower tray repair in Purn

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are snagging damage in a new bathroom and chips or cracks by the plughole.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Purn. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Purn clients choose us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Purn questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
