Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

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

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Do you need shower tray repair in Tylerscross?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

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

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

Common questions in Tylerscross

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you come to Tylerscross?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Tylerscross and the rest of Essex. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How long does it take to cure?

Generally the next day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
