10 questions to ask before you book

Shower tray repair in Westleigh, done in place

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 will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for a dull, stained or worn surface and scratches from cleaning or grit, in enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

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

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
