About our shower tray repair in Baswich

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, stained or worn surface and damage around the waste.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Baswich

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A crack across the base
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to look after the finish
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Questions from Baswich

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you work in Baswich?

We do. Technicians travel to Baswich from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

Will it make a mess?

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

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Baswich

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
