Shower tray repair near Elton

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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

How we handle shower tray repair in Elton

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and a cracked shower tray, we can typically put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Elton

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

What we’re called out for in Elton

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Comparing quotes

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Elton questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Shropshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you work in Elton?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Elton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally the next day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Elton. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Repair or replace in Elton?

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
