Trusted shower tray repair in Seaton

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

About our shower tray repair in Seaton

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Typical jobs include staining and dullness across the tray and scuffs and light scratches, across stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Seaton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. 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. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Seaton

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A crack across the base
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Seaton

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

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

Do you work in Seaton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Seaton and the rest of County Durham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

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

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

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