About our shower tray repair in Flookburgh

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and movement when you stand on it.

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Flookburgh

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches in the surface

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Flookburgh

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

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Flookburgh use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
