Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

How we handle shower tray repair in West Stoke

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic, and people most often call us about chipped corners or rims and damage from a refit or building work.

Rural addresses like West Stoke just need a little planning, and we’ll organise the visit.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Signs you need shower tray repair in West Stoke

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A crack across the base

Rented homes near Fishbourne station (about 2.2 miles south) change hands often, and repairing shower trays between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. For a rural home like those around West Stoke, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.

Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again. For a rural address like West Stoke, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the shower tray repair comes with us in one trip.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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.
