Trusted shower tray repair in Balmore

Shower tray repair at your home in Balmore

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for chips caused during fitting and a crack across the base, across cast iron, acrylic and ceramic.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Landlord and trade work in Balmore

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Balmore, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Balmore

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you need shower tray repair in Balmore?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
