Shower tray repair in Appleton-le-Moors without replacing anything

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are edge chips from dropped bottles and a damaged area around the waste.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Appleton-le-Moors: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  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 entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Appleton-le-Moors

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.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A crack across the base
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace in Appleton-le-Moors?

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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Take a look at our prices page.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Appleton-le-Moors. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
