Your questions about shower tray repair in Bowling Bank

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Shower tray repair at your home in Bowling Bank

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and edge chips from dropped bottles, across stone resin, acrylic and ceramic.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wrexham.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

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

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Related advice

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Do you need shower tray repair in Bowling Bank?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
