Shower tray repair near Small End

Shower tray repair at your home in Small End

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We’re often asked to fix staining and dullness across the tray and edge chips from dropped bottles, across enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use the extractor fan

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Small End: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

What we’re called out for in Small End

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Cracks running from the waste

Before booking anyone

  • How to care for the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
