Shower tray repair for Edmundbyers homes

Shower tray repair at your home in Edmundbyers

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We work on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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 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.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Edmundbyers

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

When can I use the shower again?

Generally the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Edmundbyers

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Edmundbyers. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Edmundbyers. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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 will come back with a fixed figure.
