Need shower tray repair in Storrington?

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

How we handle shower tray repair in Storrington

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with a dull, stained or worn surface and a cracked shower tray, we can help.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Common problems we fix in Storrington

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairing versus replacing in Storrington

The tray is generally 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Storrington

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Storrington use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Storrington. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
