Need shower tray repair in Etherley Grange?

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

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

How we handle shower tray repair in Etherley Grange

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We’re often asked to fix scratches from cleaning or grit and movement when you stand on it, on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Should you replace it?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

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

FAQs for Etherley Grange

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Etherley Grange included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do you cover Etherley Grange?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Etherley Grange. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Etherley Grange, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlord and trade work in Etherley Grange

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

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in County Durham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
