How we handle shower tray repair in Wing

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste.

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

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

FAQs for Wing

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

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

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
