Shower tray repair for Stoughton homes

Shower tray repair at your home in Stoughton

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 repair lasts. Our technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are a damaged area around the waste and a dull, stained or worn surface.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Stoughton as everywhere else we work.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you need shower tray repair in Stoughton?

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A cracked shower tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before you book

How to care for the repair

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

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Check the seal every few months

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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