Shower tray repair at your home in Cheshire East

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked shower tray and a dull, stained or worn surface.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

What we’re called out for in Cheshire East

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

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What affects the price in Cheshire East

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cheshire East. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Cheshire East: your questions answered

How do I book?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
