Trusted shower tray repair in Selmeston

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we handle shower tray repair in Selmeston

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and a tray that flexes, we can normally put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

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.

Stone resin

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Selmeston. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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 pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

FAQs for Selmeston

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Selmeston?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you work in Selmeston?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Selmeston and the rest of East Sussex. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlord and trade work in Selmeston

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in East Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
