Shower tray repair for Shadwell homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Shower tray repair in Shadwell, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a damaged area around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

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

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shadwell

For anyone letting property in or around Shadwell, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shadwell as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Shadwell questions

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Do you work in Shadwell?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Shadwell. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

10 questions to ask before you book

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
