Need shower tray repair in Whitewall Common?

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Shower tray repair in Whitewall Common, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Common call-outs are for a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage from a refit or building work, across stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Whitewall Common. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Whitewall Common

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

  • Stone resin

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start 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 quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before booking
