Shower tray repair near Chevinside

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Shower tray repair in Chevinside, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and scratches from cleaning or grit.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in Chevinside

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Chevinside. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Chevinside

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Chevinside. Prices don’t change with location.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do you come to Chevinside?

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

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Chevinside?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DE56 postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

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

What we work on

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we are called out for in Chevinside

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What protection goes down before work starts

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

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.
