Shower tray repair for Chadderton Fold homes

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Chadderton Fold, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Shower tray repair at your home in Chadderton Fold

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Our technicians work on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic, and people most often call us about snagging damage in a new bathroom and damage around the waste.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Questions from Chadderton Fold

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What affects the price in Chadderton Fold

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Chadderton Fold. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
