How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stoneygate. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Stoneygate and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Common problems we fix in Stoneygate

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips caused during fitting

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Stoneygate

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do you come to Stoneygate?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stoneygate for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Stoneygate?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
