Shower tray repair in St George

Shower tray repair at your home in St George

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include a damaged area around the waste and damage from a refit or building work, in acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BS5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
