Shower tray repair in Unstone, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. We work on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are edge chips from dropped bottles and damage from a refit or building work.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Our hiring checklist

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition 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.

Common questions in Unstone

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Unstone included. Travel is included in the price.

How do I book?

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Unstone. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Unstone. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
