About our shower tray repair in Temple Fortune

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused during fitting and scratches from cleaning or grit.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Temple Fortune use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Temple Fortune. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Temple Fortune questions

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you cover Temple Fortune?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Temple Fortune from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Should you replace it?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
