Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Shower tray repair in Westridge without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We’re often asked to fix movement when you stand on it and chips on the edges, on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Westridge

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you cover Westridge?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Westridge and the rest of Isle of Wight. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish, typically the day after.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
