Shower tray repair for Stanton homes

Shower tray repair in Stanton without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches from cleaning or grit.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

10 questions to ask before booking

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Common questions in Stanton

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Stanton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, generally the following day.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Does someone need to be in?

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DE15 postcode.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
