Shower tray repair in Undercliffe

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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 strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Undercliffe

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Should you replace it?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts 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.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
