How we handle shower tray repair in Spa Common

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. We regularly repair cast iron, ceramic and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a crack across the base and damage from a refit or building work.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

FAQs for Spa Common

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Do you need shower tray repair in Spa Common?

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • If travel is included in the price

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Spa Common. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Spa Common. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it
