Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

How we handle shower tray repair in Rosewarne

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We’re often asked to fix chips on the edges and snagging damage in a new bathroom, across acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

What we are called out for in Rosewarne

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

FAQs for Rosewarne

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Honest limits

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

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Rosewarne

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
