Shower tray repair near Stony Stratford

Shower tray repair at your home in Stony Stratford

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We are often asked to fix chips on the edges and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, across cast iron, stone resin and ceramic.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Questions from Stony Stratford

Do you cover the entire of Northamptonshire?

The whole UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How long before I can shower?

Normally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover Stony Stratford?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Stony Stratford and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Repairing versus replacing in Stony Stratford

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

What affects the price in Stony Stratford

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Stony Stratford. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back

If you are in Stony Stratford and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Stony Stratford

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

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

When to call us in Stony Stratford

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who will actually do the work
