Trusted shower tray repair in Brownlow

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Shower tray repair in Brownlow, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Whether it’s damage around the waste and cracks running from the waste, we can help, on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin alike.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wigan.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Repairing versus replacing in Brownlow

Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
