Shower tray repair near Aston

Shower tray repair in Aston, done in place

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that flexes.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Aston and across Halton.

Questions from Aston

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you come to Aston?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Aston from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Aston. Prices don’t change with location.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What information do you need?

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

When to call us in Aston

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your WA7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Aston

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
