Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Ranmore Common

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Ranmore Common: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Are you accredited?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Ranmore Common

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Choosing a repair company

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

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

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
