Trusted shower tray repair in Theydon Garnon

Shower tray repair in Theydon Garnon, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Whether it’s a damaged area around the waste and cracks running from the waste, we can usually put it right, on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

Common questions in Theydon Garnon

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Theydon Garnon from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Theydon Garnon

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Repairing versus replacing in Theydon Garnon

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
