How we handle shower tray repair in Ennerdale Bridge

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage in a new bathroom and a damaged area around the waste.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ennerdale Bridge and across Cumbria.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

See our prices page.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Ennerdale Bridge

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Common reasons people in Ennerdale Bridge contact us are:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • When it can be used again

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ennerdale Bridge

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Ennerdale Bridge

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, usually the next day.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
