About our shower tray repair in Elton

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a dull, stained or worn surface.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Elton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common questions in Elton

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Elton.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Elton

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

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  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 clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Repair or replace in Elton?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Elton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our pricing.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Elton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

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

What we are called out for in Elton

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Choosing a repair company

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
