Shower tray repair at your home in Astwood

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Store bottles off the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Questions from Astwood

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you work in Astwood?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Astwood. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Common problems we fix in Astwood

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that flexes
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Astwood

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Astwood. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

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

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  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, generally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

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

Landlord and trade work in Astwood

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
