Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Barrow Common. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Questions from Barrow Common

Do you work in Barrow Common?

We do. We send a technician to Barrow Common for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Barrow Common?

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

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Do you need shower tray repair in Barrow Common?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A crack across the base
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
