Shower tray repair near Chowley

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chowley use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Shower tray repair at your home in Chowley

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and edge chips from dropped bottles, on stone resin, ceramic and cast iron.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Chowley questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How long before I can shower?

Usually the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Cheshire West and Chester. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Chowley

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CH3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
