What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

How we handle shower tray repair in Cow Roast

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are movement when you stand on it and damage around the waste.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Cow Roast

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Cow Roast

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Landlord and trade work in Cow Roast

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

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.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Cow Roast

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A damaged area around the waste

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

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

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Cow Roast

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HP23 postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Will it make a mess?

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