Book shower tray repair in Belle Vue

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Belle Vue, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Shower tray repair in Belle Vue without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with staining and dullness across the tray and chips on the edges, we can help, on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Should you replace it?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Belle Vue, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
