Trusted shower tray repair in St Julians

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we’re called out for in St Julians

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in St Julians

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

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Store bottles off the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in St Julians.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you quote from photos?

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens on the day

When we visit, 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, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done 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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
