Do you need shower tray repair in Ashby de la Launde?

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

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage around the waste

If you let a flat or house near Ruskington station (about 3.5 miles south-east), we repair shower trays between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly.

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Report any creaking or movement early

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

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

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Ashby de la Launde

Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
