Shower tray repair in South Bank

About our shower tray repair in South Bank

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Our technicians work on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches in the surface.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

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.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to South Bank. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What we’re called out for in South Bank

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to care for the finish
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

South Bank questions

How long does it take to cure?

Typically the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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