About our shower tray repair in Rathven

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chips on the edges and a dull, stained or worn surface.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Rathven and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Do you need shower tray repair in Rathven?

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.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A crack across the base
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Rathven. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from pictures so you do not 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.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your AB56 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Rathven

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Repair or replace in Rathven?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. 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 Rathven clients choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Most jobs done in one visit

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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, a professional repair is worth it.
