About our shower tray repair in Stockbury

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. Whether it’s a crack across the base and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Stockbury questions

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Stockbury?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your ME9 postcode.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

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

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stockbury

For anyone letting property in or around Stockbury, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Stockbury. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
