Trusted shower tray repair in Wych Cross

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Shower tray repair in Wych Cross, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re frequently asked to fix scratches from cleaning or grit and chips or cracks by the plughole, across cast iron, stone resin and ceramic.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 will not last.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Wych Cross. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RH18 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Wych Cross

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Before you book anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
