Trusted shower tray repair in Temple Hill

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

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

Shower tray repair in Temple Hill, done in place

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Typical jobs include chips or cracks by the plughole and staining and dullness across the tray, across cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Do you need shower tray repair in Temple Hill?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Damage around the waste

Our hiring checklist

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What affects the price in Temple Hill

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

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

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Temple Hill, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Temple Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
