How we handle shower tray repair in Chelmorton

We repair a lot of shower trays. 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 edge chips from dropped bottles and movement when you stand on it, across acrylic, cast iron and ceramic.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Chelmorton, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Chelmorton

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How long does it take to cure?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Derbyshire.

Do you need shower tray repair in Chelmorton?

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

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, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
