Shower tray repair in Antrim

What happens on the day

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

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How we handle shower tray repair in Antrim

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We work on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about damage around the waste and scratches in the surface.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Antrim

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

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 photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Antrim, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Antrim

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether they match the colour on site

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

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

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