Shower tray repair near Bestwood Village

Shower tray repair in Bestwood Village, done in place

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. We work on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

Somewhere like Bestwood Village, showers are often in converted or older buildings, where floors may be timber. A crack is only repaired once we know the tray is firm.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Bestwood Village. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

If you are in Bestwood Village and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we are called out for in Bestwood Village

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

If you let a flat or house near Hucknall station (about 1.2 miles north-west), we repair shower trays between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly.

How to compare quotes

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring all our kit in the van, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there. In a village or hamlet like Bestwood Village, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. For a rural home like those around Bestwood Village, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while shower tray repair is one trip.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
