Trusted shower tray repair in Toddington

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

About our shower tray repair in Toddington

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and chips caused during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Check the seal every few months

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Toddington

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

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.

10 questions to ask before booking

FAQs for Toddington

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
