How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Shower tray repair at your home in Shipley Bridge

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. If you’re dealing with cracks running from the waste and damage around the waste, we can typically put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Shipley Bridge and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, 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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When to call us in Shipley Bridge

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
