Need shower tray repair in Armitage?

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit

About our shower tray repair in Armitage

Common problems we fix in Armitage

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A crack across the base

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How soon you can use it again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Armitage. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Armitage. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in Armitage get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Armitage

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

Landlord and trade work in Armitage

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Armitage: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Armitage.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

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 doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
