How we handle shower tray repair in Shipton-under-Wychwood

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We’re frequently asked to fix a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a tray that flexes, in enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin.

Somewhere like Shipton-under-Wychwood, showers are frequently in converted or older buildings, where timber floors can move. A crack is only repaired once we know the tray is firm.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

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

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use the extractor fan

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there. In a village or hamlet like Shipton-under-Wychwood, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
