About our shower tray repair in The Raikes

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We work on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic, and people most often call us about staining and dullness across the tray and movement when you stand on it.

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.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Landlords, agents and businesses in The Raikes

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Do you need shower tray repair in The Raikes?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

How to compare quotes

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Common questions in The Raikes

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you come to The Raikes?

We do. We send a technician to The Raikes for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

What we work on

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

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job.
