Shower tray repair in Westbourne, done in place

We repair plenty of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. Typical jobs include a tray that flexes and scratches in the surface, across acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic.

Common problems we fix in Westbourne

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A cracked shower tray

How to compare quotes

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Advice

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Westbourne. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Repair or replace in Westbourne?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

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

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

FAQs for Westbourne

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
