About our shower tray repair in Throapham

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and people most often call us about a cracked shower tray and movement when you stand on it.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What we are called out for in Throapham

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What to look for in a quote

Our hiring checklist

Throapham: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Throapham?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Throapham and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlord and trade work in Throapham

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
