Shower tray repair in Aspatria, done in place

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We regularly repair ceramic, stone resin and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a crack across the base and scratches in the surface.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cumbria and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Aspatria questions

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Aspatria is covered. Prices do not change with location.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Aspatria?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will there be a smell?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How long before I can shower?

Normally the next day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Do you need shower tray repair in Aspatria?

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A crack across the base
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
