Trusted shower tray repair in Fenton

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Shower tray repair in Fenton without replacing anything

We repair a lot of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Common call-outs are for chips caused during fitting and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, in cast iron, ceramic and acrylic.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common questions in Fenton

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

For anyone letting property in or around Fenton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
