Repair or replace in Wayford?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
