Shower tray repair for Almeley homes

Shower tray repair in Almeley, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Whether it’s chipped corners or rims and a damaged area around the waste, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

What we work on

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Almeley

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

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

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Almeley. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Almeley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
