Shower tray repair in The Haven

How we handle shower tray repair in The Haven

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We are frequently asked to fix a tray that flexes and a damaged area around the waste, in acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in The Haven

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, normally along the edges or by the waste.

Look out for these signs:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in The Haven

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around The Haven, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

The Haven: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Do you cover the whole of West Sussex?

Everywhere in the UK, The Haven included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
