How we handle shower tray repair in Wyboston

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are edge chips from dropped bottles and staining and dullness across the tray.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

Your questions about shower tray repair in Wyboston

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the next day.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

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 there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover Wyboston?

We do. We send a technician to Wyboston for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What a repair cannot fix

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

10 questions to ask before you book

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
