Shower tray repair for Catshaw homes

Shower tray repair at your home in Catshaw

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 tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a crack across the base and chips caused during fitting.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Catshaw

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, normally the following day.

Do you charge for travel?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do you work in Catshaw?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Catshaw and the rest of Barnsley. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day 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. 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

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Signs you need shower tray repair in Catshaw

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Cracks running from the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace in Catshaw?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Catshaw. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
