Shower tray repair in Redbridge without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. If you are dealing with damage from a refit or building work and staining and dullness across the tray, we can usually put it right.

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

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Check the seal every few months

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Redbridge questions

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work in Redbridge?

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

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What affects the price in Redbridge

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
