How we handle shower tray repair in Salhouse

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s a dull, stained or worn surface and a damaged area around the waste, we can help, on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Salhouse and across Norfolk.

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Salhouse use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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.

Repairing versus replacing in Salhouse

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. What it costs 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. 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.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Questions from Salhouse

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do you work in Salhouse?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Salhouse and the rest of Norfolk. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your NR13 postcode.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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, and the work is guaranteed.
