How we handle shower tray repair in Broadgreen

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Broadgreen

Common questions in Broadgreen

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

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

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?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your L14 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repairing versus replacing in Broadgreen

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broadgreen use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
