Shower tray repair in South Poorton without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in South Poorton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 will not last.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are 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 you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Honest limits

  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
