If you've discovered chips, cracks, or stains in your shower tray, you need professional shower tray repair Horley residents have relied on for over 30 years. Living just minutes from Gatwick Airport means many Horley homes experience constant use from families, commuters, and visiting relatives - putting extra strain on bathroom fixtures.
Common shower tray problems we see daily in Horley include impact chips from dropped shampoo bottles, stress cracks in resin trays from heavy use, and worn surfaces losing their non-slip properties. Whether you're in a modern estate near Langshott or a period property in the conservation area around St Bartholomew's Church, our repair service saves you the cost and disruption of full replacement, backed by our comprehensive 12 months warranty.
Our shower tray repair Horley service employs advanced techniques refined over 30 years. Each type of tray material requires specific expertise - acrylic trays need different compounds than stone-resin, while ceramic requires specialized glazing techniques. Our technicians arrive fully equipped to handle any repair on-site.
For the modern developments around Horley Station and Balcombe Road, we frequently repair designer resin trays that would cost £600-£1,200 to replace. These premium trays often feature unique colors and textures that we match perfectly using our extensive color library and custom mixing techniques.
Victorian and Edwardian properties in central Horley often retain original ceramic shower trays that are irreplaceable. Our restoration process preserves these period features while ensuring they meet modern waterproofing standards. We've successfully repaired trays over 50 years old, extending their life by decades with our 12 months warranty protection.
From the busy town center around Victoria Road to the quieter residential streets of Langshott, we provide comprehensive shower tray repair coverage. The Acres estate, with its mix of 1960s and modern homes, sees frequent calls for acrylic tray repairs. Meanwhile, properties near Horley Row and the recreation ground often require ceramic tray restoration.
We also cover smaller areas around Horley, including Smallfield, Charlwood, and Hookwood. Our service extends to Salfords, Sidlow, and even properties near Gatwick Airport's perimeter. With detailed knowledge of every RH6 postcode area, we can respond quickly to repair requests throughout the region.
Just last week, we completed a challenging repair for the Thompson family on Haroldslea Drive. Their stone-resin shower tray had developed a 10cm crack running from the drain toward the corner - a common issue in newer builds where slight foundation settlement can stress rigid trays. Water was leaking through to their kitchen ceiling below, causing paint to bubble and threatening more serious damage.
Our experienced technician arrived within 2 hours of their call. Using flexible bonding compounds specifically designed for stone-resin, we sealed the crack from beneath and above, ensuring complete waterproofing. The surface was then rebuilt and polished to match the original slate-grey finish perfectly. The entire repair took 3 hours and cost £345 - compared to a replacement quote of £1,850 that would have required removing wall tiles and taking the bathroom out of action for a week.
Six months later (well within our 12 months warranty), we called to check on the repair. Mrs. Thompson confirmed it was "absolutely perfect" with no signs of the original damage. This is typical of our shower tray repair Horley service - lasting solutions that save money and disruption.
Initial Assessment: When you call 0345 017 0787, we'll discuss the damage and often provide an estimate immediately. For complex repairs, we can assess photos sent via WhatsApp. Our 30 years of experience means we can quickly identify the best repair approach.
On-Site Repair: Our technician arrives with all necessary equipment - no need for multiple visits. We protect your bathroom with dust sheets, then prepare the damaged area by cleaning and removing any loose material. The repair compounds are carefully color-matched to your existing tray.
Application & Curing: Multiple thin layers ensure a strong, invisible repair. We use rapid-curing formulas that allow shower use within 24 hours - much faster than the week-long disruption of replacement. Each repair is tested for water-tightness before we leave.
Warranty & Aftercare: You'll receive a 12 months warranty certificate covering the repair. We provide clear aftercare instructions to maximize the repair's lifespan. Most repairs last 10+ years with normal use - we still see repairs we completed in Horley homes during the 2000s performing perfectly.
Why Repair Makes Sense
Shower tray replacement in Horley typically costs £800-£2,000 including labor, new tray, and tiling work. There's also the inconvenience - your bathroom out of action for 3-5 days, mess throughout your home, and risk of damaging pipes or waterproofing. Our repairs complete in hours for a fraction of the cost.
All prices include our 12 months warranty
We provide shower tray repair throughout Horley and surrounding areas including:
With 30 years of experience, we can repair 95% of damaged shower trays. Chips, cracks, scratches, and worn surfaces are all repairable using our professional techniques. Only trays with extensive structural damage or complete breaks typically need replacement. We'll always give honest advice - if replacement is genuinely needed, we'll tell you upfront rather than attempt a repair that won't last.
For Horley town center and immediate surroundings (RH6), we typically offer same-day or next-day service. Properties in Smallfield, Charlwood, or Hookwood are usually serviced within 48 hours. Emergency repairs for serious leaks can often be accommodated same-day. The repair itself takes 2-4 hours depending on damage extent, and your shower can be used again after 24 hours.
Our comprehensive warranty covers any failure of the repair under normal use. If the repaired area chips, cracks, or leaks within 12 months, we return and fix it free of charge. This warranty demonstrates our confidence in both our 30 years of expertise and the quality of materials we use. The warranty transfers if you sell your property, adding value for potential buyers.
DIY repair kits from hardware stores rarely provide lasting results. They lack the professional-grade compounds we use, don't include proper color matching, and require skills developed over years of practice. We've often been called to fix failed DIY repairs, which can be more expensive than calling us initially. Our 12 months warranty and 30 years of experience ensure a professional, lasting repair.
