Shower tray repair in Woodham Walter without replacing anything

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a cracked shower tray.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CM9 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
