Shower tray repair near Shoreham-by-Sea

Shower tray repair in Shoreham-by-Sea, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. If you have a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste, we can help, on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin alike.

Around Shoreham-by-Sea, trays are mostly in en suites and family bathrooms. A damaged tray doesn’t have to be replaced, as long as it’s firmly supported.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

When to call us in Shoreham-by-Sea

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A crack across the base
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips on the edges

Landlords with property near Shoreham-By-Sea station (in Shoreham-by-Sea itself) use us between tenancies, so shower trays are repaired rather than replaced.

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. For a family home in Shoreham-by-Sea, replacing a shower tray can mean days without the room. A repair normally takes a day or less.

Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, 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.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business

See our Prices page.

Shoreham-by-Sea questions

Do you work for schools and businesses in Shoreham-by-Sea?

Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. We’ll agree timings that suit the building.

Do you work for landlords with property near Shoreham-By-Sea station?

Yes, landlords and agents book us regularly, and a repair between tenants is generally quicker than replacing.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Shoreham-by-Sea?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How long before I can shower?

Usually the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shoreham-by-Sea

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shoreham-by-Sea as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Shoreham-by-Sea, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it. All we need in Shoreham-by-Sea is access to the room and a parking space nearby. One visit is normally enough, with the shower tray repair finished the same day.

  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. It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
