Shower tray repair in Armshead, done in place

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you are dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and a crack across the base, we can normally put it right.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Armshead

Can landlords book you?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

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 redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Do you need shower tray repair in Armshead?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Common reasons people in Armshead contact us include:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Comparing quotes

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re 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 and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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 whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Armshead, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
