Shower tray repair in Branton Green

How we handle shower tray repair in Branton Green

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with chips on the edges and cracks running from the waste, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we’re called out for in Branton Green

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • A crack across the base

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What preparation is included
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

FAQs for Branton Green

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Branton Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
