Shower tray repair at your home in Scurlage

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We work on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are damage around the waste and a dull, stained or worn surface.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. 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.

What we’re called out for in Scurlage

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Scurlage. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Scurlage: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
