Shower tray repair near Wimblington

About our shower tray repair in Wimblington

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about scuffs and light scratches and movement when you stand on it.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Wimblington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Wimblington, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Wimblington

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
