Shower tray repair for Trenale homes

About our shower tray repair in Trenale

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about movement when you stand on it and scratches in the surface.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

When to call us in Trenale

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  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

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Repair or replace in Trenale?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

FAQs for Trenale

Do you come to Trenale?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Trenale for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

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.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Are you accredited?

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

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

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

Ceramic

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

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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