Shower tray repair in Deeping Gate

How we handle shower tray repair in Deeping Gate

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We regularly repair cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and staining and dullness across the tray.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally 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.

What affects the price in Deeping Gate

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Deeping Gate. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

If you’re in Deeping Gate and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, 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. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
