Shower tray repair near Brook Street

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How we handle shower tray repair in Brook Street

We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. Whether it’s damage around the waste and movement when you stand on it, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Brook Street, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Questions from Brook Street

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Landlord and trade work in Brook Street

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

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Brook Street

Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips caused during fitting

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to care for the finish

10 questions to ask before booking

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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