Shower tray repair at your home in Bramcote Hills

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Common call-outs are for damage around the waste and scratches in the surface, in enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work 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 care for it.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What we’re called out for in Bramcote Hills

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A crack across the base

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bramcote Hills

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bramcote Hills as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Bramcote Hills, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What affects the price in Bramcote Hills

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

FAQs for Bramcote Hills

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
