How we handle shower tray repair in West Lynn

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We work on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about staining and dullness across the tray and damage from a refit or building work.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Landlord and trade work in West Lynn

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Lynn as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

When a repair is not the answer

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
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in West Lynn

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chipped corners or rims

Our hiring checklist

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Your questions about shower tray repair in West Lynn

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to West Lynn. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
