Shower tray repair near Crumpsall

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Shower tray repair in Crumpsall, done in place

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles.

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

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

What we’re called out for in Crumpsall

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

How to compare quotes

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Crumpsall

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Crumpsall. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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