Stubbins questions

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Stubbins included. Travel is included in the price.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Do you work in Stubbins?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Stubbins. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

When to call us in Stubbins

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

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. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Stubbins, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Stubbins

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
