Trusted shower tray repair in Bilsthorpe

Shower tray repair in Bilsthorpe without replacing anything

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 so the repair blends in. We work on cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are edge chips from dropped bottles and scuffs and light scratches.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bilsthorpe and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

When to call us in Bilsthorpe

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, usually along the edges or by the waste.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Movement when you stand on it

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Questions from Bilsthorpe

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the 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 generally usable the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

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

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
