Repairing versus replacing in Churchbank

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

About our shower tray repair in Churchbank

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and light scratches and cracks running from the waste.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Questions from Churchbank

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of Shropshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What we’re called out for in Churchbank

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A cracked shower tray

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

If you are in Churchbank and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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