Shower tray repair near Sedgeford

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Shower tray repair in Sedgeford, done in place

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We’re often asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and a dull, stained or worn surface, in ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Sedgeford?

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Sedgeford. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PE36 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Repairing versus replacing in Sedgeford

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

FAQs for Sedgeford

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
