Shower tray repair at your home in Tuckingmill

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s chips caused during fitting and chipped corners or rims, we can typically put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Tuckingmill

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Tuckingmill?

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Cracks running from the waste

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
