Shower tray repair near St Helier

Shower tray repair at your home in St Helier

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about staining and dullness across the tray and scuffs and light scratches.

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

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Questions from St Helier

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Landlords, agents and businesses in St Helier

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Helier as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for St Helier. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
