Shower tray repair in Crockey Hill

Questions from Crockey Hill

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish, typically the day after.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Do you come to Crockey Hill?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Crockey Hill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

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

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Repair or replace in Crockey Hill?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

When to call us in Crockey Hill

Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

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. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Crockey Hill. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
