Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Shower tray repair in Tetsworth without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Common call-outs are for scratches from cleaning or grit and damage from a refit or building work, in cast iron, acrylic and stone resin.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Tetsworth

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips on the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Tetsworth?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colour-matched on site

Tetsworth: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  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, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
