Shower tray repair near Silverdale

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Shower tray repair in Silverdale, done in place

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a cracked shower tray and chips on the edges.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Silverdale. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place

Take a look at our full price list.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Silverdale

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish, normally the following day.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

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.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Common problems we fix in Silverdale

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
