About our shower tray repair in Roberton

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can help.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Do you need shower tray repair in Roberton?

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business

Your questions about shower tray repair in Roberton

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Roberton?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your ML12 postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Roberton. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

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 get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Roberton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

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

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.

Can I fix it myself?

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
