Shower tray repair for Chilwell homes

Repairing versus replacing in Chilwell

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

About our shower tray repair in Chilwell

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We regularly repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a crack across the base and damage around the waste.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Chilwell and across Nottinghamshire.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Chilwell

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Chilwell

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Before you book anyone

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How to care for the finish

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Chilwell

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chilwell use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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 doesn’t stop a professional repair. 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 clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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