Shower tray repair near Almington

Shower tray repair in Almington, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. We are frequently asked to fix cracks running from the waste and movement when you stand on it, in enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Almington: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Almington.

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

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

When to call us in Almington

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that flexes
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Comparing quotes

  • If travel is included in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

You do not 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’ll reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Almington use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Almington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Everything repaired in place

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
