Trusted shower tray repair in Putney

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can

Shower tray repair in Putney, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and a crack across the base, we can help, on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Putney and across Greater London.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Putney

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you come to Putney?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Putney. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What information do you need?

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
