Shower tray repair for Foleshill homes

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

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

About our shower tray repair in Foleshill

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and people most often call us about chips caused during fitting and movement when you stand on it.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

For landlords and businesses

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

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Foleshill questions

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Foleshill is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work in Foleshill?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Foleshill and the rest of Coventry. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

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

What affects the price in Foleshill

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What we are called out for in Foleshill

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Comparing quotes

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before booking

What we can’t put right

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

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
