Shower tray repair at your home in Ringshall Stocks

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and staining and dullness across the tray, on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Ventilate the room after showers
Replace failing sealant promptly
Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

We protect the floor and the enclosure.
Any sealant in the way is cut out.
We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
The surface is refinished to match.
We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

Advice

Why do shower trays crack?

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Ringshall Stocks: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is it messy?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
