Shower tray repair for Brunthwaite homes

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic

How we handle shower tray repair in Brunthwaite

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scuffs and light scratches, in enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  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

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Your questions about shower tray repair in Brunthwaite

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

How soon can you come?

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

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

What do you need from me?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Do you need shower tray repair in Brunthwaite?

Common reasons people in Brunthwaite contact us are:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

10 questions to ask before booking

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
