Shower tray repair near Stockhold Green

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

About our shower tray repair in Stockhold Green

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. If you’re dealing with a cracked shower tray and a damaged area around the waste, we can help.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Stockhold Green

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Do you need shower tray repair in Stockhold Green?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A crack across the base
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Movement when you stand on it
