Shower tray repair in Staplehay without replacing anything

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and staining and dullness across the tray.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Staplehay and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Questions from Staplehay

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Will there be a smell?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Repairing versus replacing in Staplehay

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most clients in Staplehay get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Staplehay

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chipped corners or rims
