Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and a cracked shower tray, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Rushton: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Rushton?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NN14 postcode.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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