Shower tray repair near Burneston

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

About our shower tray repair in Burneston

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Common call-outs are for chips on the edges and scuffs and light scratches, on stone resin, acrylic and ceramic.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, 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. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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 popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Common problems we fix in Burneston

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips on the edges

Common questions in Burneston

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Is my repair covered?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day, generally the following day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Honest limits

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

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burneston

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

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.

Repairing versus replacing in Burneston

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
