Trusted shower tray repair in Winforton

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places

Materials we repair

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

Shower tray repair in Winforton without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair ceramic, cast iron and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about chips caused during fitting and edge chips from dropped bottles.

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

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Winforton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Winforton clients choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our prices page.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What we are called out for in Winforton

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Common questions in Winforton

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Winforton. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
