How we handle shower tray repair in Ebnal

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Common call-outs are for movement when you stand on it and staining and dullness across the tray, across ceramic, cast iron and stone resin.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Ebnal

Cracks often start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Cracks running from the waste

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

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 we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Ebnal

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Take a look at our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

Ebnal questions

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Ebnal?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you come to Ebnal?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ebnal and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ebnal use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Ebnal. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

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 can be filled and matched.
