Trusted shower tray repair in Wall

Shower tray repair at your home in Wall

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about chips on the edges and damage from a refit or building work.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  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 entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Your questions about shower tray repair in Wall

What do you need from me?

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

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Landlord and trade work in Wall

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
