How we handle shower tray repair in Waterrow

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. We’re often asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and staining and dullness across the tray, in enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

FAQs for Waterrow

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Waterrow

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A crack across the base
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our full price list.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TA4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
