Shower tray repair for Sherbourne homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Sherbourne

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We are frequently asked to fix chipped corners or rims and scratches in the surface, in acrylic, cast iron and stone resin.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sherbourne as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we’re called out for in Sherbourne

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • How to look after the finish
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Rinse the tray after use, 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 damage the floor below.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

FAQs for Sherbourne

Are there extra charges for Sherbourne?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, generally the next day.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Sherbourne, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
