Shower tray repair in Stocking

Shower tray repair in Stocking without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about chips on the edges and cracks running from the waste.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in Stocking

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Stocking. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stocking. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Materials we work on in Stocking

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

What we’re called out for in Stocking

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Common reasons people in Stocking contact us include:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches in the surface

Stocking questions

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you cover Stocking?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Stocking and the rest of Herefordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in Stocking

If you manage property in Stocking, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stocking use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
