About our shower tray repair in Adlington

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We’re frequently asked to fix chips caused during fitting and chips on the edges, on acrylic, ceramic and stone resin.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Adlington as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Adlington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PR6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day 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. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Repairing versus replacing in Adlington

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Adlington

Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Movement when you stand on it

Common questions in Adlington

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

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.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
