About our shower tray repair in An t-Ob

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. We regularly repair cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are cracks running from the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in An t-Ob, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Your questions about shower tray repair in An t-Ob

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in An t-Ob?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HS5 postcode.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
