Trusted shower tray repair in Wilton

Shower tray repair at your home in Wilton

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about edge chips from dropped bottles and chips or cracks by the plughole.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Wilton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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, generally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Wilton

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched
  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

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

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

Wilton questions

Do you come to Wilton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wilton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
