Shower tray repair in Whitesmith

When to call us in Whitesmith

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. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

About our shower tray repair in Whitesmith

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s damage from a refit or building work and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Ceramic

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

Repairing versus replacing in Whitesmith

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price 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 quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Whitesmith customers choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Take a look at our pricing.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  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 strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Landlords, agents and businesses in Whitesmith

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

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

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

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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