Shower tray repair for Wallsuches homes

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Materials we work on in Wallsuches

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

How we handle shower tray repair in Wallsuches

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We are frequently asked to fix chipped corners or rims and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on acrylic, stone resin and ceramic.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t 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. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What affects the price in Wallsuches

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your BL6 postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
