Shower tray repair for Austwick homes

Shower tray repair in Austwick without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Common call-outs are for edge chips from dropped bottles and a damaged area around the waste, on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Austwick

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Common problems we fix in Austwick

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Our hiring checklist

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Austwick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Austwick

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Do you cover Austwick?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Austwick and the rest of Lancashire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How long before I can shower?

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

Repair or replace in Austwick?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
