Shower tray repair for Shutford homes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

For a price in Shutford, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Shower tray repair in Shutford without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with cracks running from the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Shutford questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Shutford?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Common problems we fix in Shutford

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

Common reasons people in Shutford contact us are:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chipped corners or rims

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Shutford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Shutford clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 normally cheaper.
