Shower tray repair in Stratton

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.

How we handle shower tray repair in Stratton

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our technicians work on cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked shower tray and scratches in the surface.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Stratton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Stratton?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Stratton clients choose us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stratton

For anyone letting property in or around Stratton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Stratton questions

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
