Trusted shower tray repair in Cragg Vale

How we handle shower tray repair in Cragg Vale

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. We work on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about chips on the edges and scuffs and light scratches.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cragg Vale

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Your questions about shower tray repair in Cragg Vale

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Cragg Vale. Prices do not change with location.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Cragg Vale. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
