Shower tray repair at your home in Sco Ruston

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with snagging damage in a new bathroom and a damaged area around the waste, we can help, on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Sco Ruston questions

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can landlords book you?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for 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 entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
