About our shower tray repair in Southorpe

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We are frequently asked to fix scratches in the surface and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, in acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Southorpe

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to compare quotes

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Store bottles off the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Common questions in Southorpe

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do you work in Southorpe?

We do. Technicians travel to Southorpe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Southorpe and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
