Shower tray repair for St. Ebbes homes

Shower tray repair at your home in St. Ebbes

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s chipped corners or rims and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Common questions in St. Ebbes

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Will the price change on the day?

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

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to St. Ebbes. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in St. Ebbes, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
