About our shower tray repair in Ruislip

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are scuffs and light scratches and movement when you stand on it.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

FAQs for Ruislip

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When can you do it?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Do you work in Ruislip?

We do. We send a technician to Ruislip for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Should I try a DIY kit 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Ruislip

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips caused during fitting

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
