Shower tray repair for East Hatley homes

How we handle shower tray repair in East Hatley

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. Common call-outs are for a dull, stained or worn surface and a damaged area around the waste, in enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Common questions in East Hatley

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Do you cover East Hatley?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to East Hatley. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

Materials we work on in East Hatley

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, 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 where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

For anyone letting property in or around East Hatley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Signs you need shower tray repair in East Hatley

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
