When chips, cracks, or stains appear in your shower tray, professional shower tray repair Cranleigh services provide the perfect solution without the expense and disruption of full replacement. From period properties along the High Street to modern developments near Cranleigh School, we've been solving shower tray problems for Surrey residents since the 1990s.
Cranleigh, Surrey's largest village, presents unique challenges for bathroom maintenance. The mix of historic cottages, Victorian villas, and contemporary family homes each have different shower tray types and damage patterns. Whether you're dealing with a hairline crack in a ceramic tray or deep chips in a modern resin base, our 30 years of experience ensures we can restore your shower to perfect condition, backed by our comprehensive 12 months warranty.
Shower trays endure constant use and are vulnerable to various types of damage. Impact chips from dropped bottles are the most common issue we see in Cranleigh homes, particularly affecting acrylic and stone-resin trays. These chips may seem minor but can harbor bacteria and lead to water penetration if left untreated.
Cracks present a more serious concern, often developing from thermal stress or structural movement. Properties in older parts of Cranleigh, such as around St Nicolas Church or along Horsham Road, may experience settlement that stresses shower trays. Our repair techniques address both the visible crack and underlying causes, preventing future problems.
Surface wear and discoloration affect shower trays after years of use. The enamel on steel trays can wear thin, while acrylic surfaces may become dull and stained. Rather than costly replacement, professional resurfacing restores the original appearance at a fraction of the cost. With 30 years perfecting our techniques, we achieve factory-quality finishes that last.
Replacing a shower tray in Cranleigh typically costs £1,200-£2,800 when you factor in the tray, labor, tiling, and potential plumbing modifications. The process takes 2-4 days, leaving your bathroom unusable. There's also risk of damaging walls, floors, and waterproofing during removal.
Professional repair costs just £195-£495, completes in 2-4 hours, and your shower is usable within 24 hours. Our repairs are invisible, durable, and covered by our 12 months warranty. For Cranleigh homeowners, it's the logical choice that saves money, time, and disruption.

A family near Cranleigh Golf Club discovered their shower tray had developed a crack, causing water to leak through their kitchen ceiling. The stone-resin tray had flexed due to inadequate support, creating a 20cm crack along the base.
We provided same-day service, arriving within 2 hours of their call. Our technician reinforced the tray from below, sealed the crack with flexible compounds, and resurfaced the damaged area. Total cost: £385, compared to £2,400 quoted for replacement. The repair is now 14 months old (beyond our 12 months warranty) and still perfect. The family avoided weeks of disruption and saved over £2,000.
A Grade II listed cottage near St Nicolas Church had an original 1950s ceramic shower tray with multiple chips and worn glazing. The owners wanted to preserve this period feature rather than modernize their bathroom.

The tray now looks pristine while maintaining its authentic character. Cost was £295, preserving a irreplaceable fixture. Our 12 months warranty provided peace of mind for this heritage property.
