Shower tray repair near Duddington

Landlord and trade work in Duddington

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we handle shower tray repair in Duddington

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. Typical jobs include damage around the waste and scuffs and light scratches, across ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin.

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

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Check the seal every few months

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

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

When to call us in Duddington

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A cracked shower tray

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Duddington: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it messy?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
