Shower tray repair for Ben Rhydding homes

Shower tray repair at your home in Ben Rhydding

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with scratches in the surface and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can help, on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Check the seal every few months

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Ben Rhydding

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

FAQs for Ben Rhydding

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are there extra charges for Ben Rhydding?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Ben Rhydding, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Common problems we fix in Ben Rhydding

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
