Shower tray repair for Roedean homes

About our shower tray repair in Roedean

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 repair lasts. Whether it’s chipped corners or rims and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can typically put it right, on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Common problems we fix in Roedean

Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

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.

Common questions in Roedean

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Roedean. Prices do not change with location.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

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.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

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

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Landlord and trade work in Roedean

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

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.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, 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.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
