Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

Common questions in Aglionby

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Aglionby?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you cover Aglionby?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Aglionby. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Should you replace it?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Common problems we fix in Aglionby

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips on the edges

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
