Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repairing versus replacing in Wolferton

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Related advice

Common problems we fix in Wolferton

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, generally along the edges or by the waste.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A crack across the base
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What preparation is included
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use the extractor fan

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
