Shower tray repair in St Jude's, done in place

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a crack across the base.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

St Jude's questions

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Do you cover the entire of Bristol?

Everywhere in the UK, St Jude's included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

When can I use the shower again?

Generally the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Honest limits

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

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Common problems we fix in St Jude's

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips caused during fitting

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether they match the colour on site
