Trusted shower tray repair in Allenton

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

Materials we repair

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

Shower tray repair in Allenton without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. If you are dealing with chips on the edges and a crack across the base, we can normally put it right, on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Allenton: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Derby.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What affects the price in Allenton

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Allenton, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Landlords, agents and businesses in Allenton

If you manage property in Allenton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
