Trusted shower tray repair in Tinsley

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

About our shower tray repair in Tinsley

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We work on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and people most often call us about scratches in the surface and cracks running from the waste.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common problems we fix in Tinsley

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Common questions in Tinsley

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repair or replace in Tinsley?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What a repair cannot fix

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
