Trusted shower tray repair in Awsworth

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Report any creaking or movement early

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.

How we handle shower tray repair in Awsworth

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. Common call-outs are for a cracked shower tray and a tray that flexes, across stone resin, ceramic and acrylic.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

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. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from Awsworth

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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

Is my repair covered?

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

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Landlord and trade work in Awsworth

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.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you need shower tray repair in Awsworth?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips on the edges

Before you book anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
