Shower tray repair for Woodmancote homes

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Shower tray repair in Woodmancote without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about a damaged area around the waste and scratches in the surface.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

What we are called out for in Woodmancote

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Woodmancote

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?

The whole UK, including all of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
