Shower tray repair for Blackburn homes

About our shower tray repair in Blackburn

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Typical jobs include chipped corners or rims and chips caused during fitting, across stone resin, acrylic and ceramic.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Blackburn and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Blackburn

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Blackburn included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Repairing versus replacing in Blackburn

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Blackburn. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
