Book shower tray repair in Aughton

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

About our shower tray repair in Aughton

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Common call-outs are for movement when you stand on it and snagging damage in a new bathroom, across enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Rotherham.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Do you need shower tray repair in Aughton?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

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

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips on the edges
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Aughton

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Your questions about shower tray repair in Aughton

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you come to Aughton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Aughton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Most clients in Aughton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
