Shower tray repair near Calthorpe

Shower tray repair in Calthorpe, done in place

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We are often asked to fix damage around the waste and movement when you stand on it, in acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Questions from Calthorpe

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Calthorpe included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your NR11 postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Landlord and trade work in Calthorpe

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

What we are called out for in Calthorpe

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A crack across the base

10 questions to ask before booking

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

  • Stone resin

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

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

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
