Shower tray repair in Denton

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Shower tray repair in Denton without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and people most often call us about chips or cracks by the plughole and a dull, stained or worn surface.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Denton

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Newcastle upon Tyne. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

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 Denton

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to care for the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Repair or replace in Denton?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Same prices wherever you are

See our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Denton. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Denton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
