Shower tray repair in Catley Lane Head without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with scratches in the surface and cracks running from the waste, we can generally put it right, on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, 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. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
Any sealant in the way is cut out.
The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
The surface is refinished to match.
We clean up and give you the curing time.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

Doing more than one item at once
How many areas need work
How hard the colour is to match
The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

Any earlier repairs or coatings
One picture of the whole shower tray
Your postcode, so we can check dates
Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

Plumbing leaks under the tray
Trays cracked in several places
Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Repair or replace in Catley Lane Head?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Catley Lane Head. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Questions from Catley Lane Head

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
