How we handle shower tray repair in Fallgate

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We’re frequently asked to fix scratches in the surface and chips caused during fitting, across enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

FAQs for Fallgate

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Are there extra charges for Fallgate?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do you cover Fallgate?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Fallgate from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Fallgate. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Fallgate

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Choosing a repair company

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fallgate use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
