Trusted shower tray repair in Rivers' Corner

Shower tray repair at your home in Rivers' Corner

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for cracks running from the waste and damage from a refit or building work, in enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Rivers' Corner

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Rivers' Corner. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour-matched on site

See our full price list.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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 will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Repairs by material

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.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Questions from Rivers' Corner

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
