Trusted shower tray repair in Clawthorpe

Shower tray repair in Clawthorpe without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. If you are dealing with chipped corners or rims and chips caused during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Clawthorpe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Clawthorpe: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?

The entire UK, including all of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Clawthorpe

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. 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 are paying for.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  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 whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Clawthorpe. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Clawthorpe

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How to care for the finish
