Shower tray repair near Attenborough

Shower tray repair at your home in Attenborough

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s chips caused during fitting and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For anyone letting property in or around Attenborough, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything

Take a look at our pricing.

When to call us in Attenborough

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Questions from Attenborough

What happens next?

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

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover Attenborough?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Attenborough from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What does shower tray repair cost?

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

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How long before I can shower?

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

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
