Shower tray repair for Bryn homes

About our shower tray repair in Bryn

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and a damaged area around the waste, we can typically put it right, on cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Bryn and across Wigan.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Landlord and trade work in Bryn

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wigan and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

FAQs for Bryn

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What do you need from me?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we are called out for in Bryn

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

What to look for in a quote

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole 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 entire tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Check the seal every few months

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
