Shower tray repair in Staverton without replacing anything

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. If you’re dealing with damage around the waste and damage from a refit or building work, we can typically put it right, on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
