Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Common questions in Chorley

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Do you come to Chorley?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Chorley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What affects the price in Chorley

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Chorley. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

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.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Get a moving tray checked

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
