Shower tray repair for South Ascot homes

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

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

Shower tray repair in South Ascot without replacing anything

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We regularly repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage in a new bathroom and movement when you stand on it.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in South Ascot

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A crack across the base

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from South Ascot

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you cover the entire of Windsor and Maidenhead?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for South Ascot. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

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, where it causes damage you can’t see.

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
