About our shower tray repair in Scosthrop

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Our technicians work on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a cracked shower tray.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Scosthrop as everywhere else we work.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common questions in Scosthrop

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Are there extra charges for Scosthrop?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use the extractor fan

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

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

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
