Shower tray repair in Rushford without replacing anything

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. If you are dealing with a tray that flexes and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  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 clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Do you need shower tray repair in Rushford?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What to look for in a quote

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
