  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

Shower tray repair in Shelfanger, done in place

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Typical jobs include edge chips from dropped bottles and a dull, stained or worn surface, on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shelfanger

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Shelfanger: your questions answered

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Is there any odour?

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

Can you quote from photos?

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

Are there extra charges for Shelfanger?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IP22 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry
