About our shower tray repair in Slad

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that flexes.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we are called out for in Slad

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Comparing quotes

  • Aftercare advice
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

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

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

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

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Slad. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most clients in Slad get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
