Shower tray repair for Seaton homes

Shower tray repair at your home in Seaton

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and movement when you stand on it, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Seaton

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Seaton. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
