Shower tray repair in Birchley Heath

Shower tray repair in Birchley Heath, done in place

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with snagging damage in a new bathroom and damage around the waste, we can help, on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Birchley Heath

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Birchley Heath. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Common questions in Birchley Heath

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Generally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

Do you cover the whole of Warwickshire?

Across the UK, so Birchley Heath is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.

  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

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