Shower tray repair in Framwellgate Moor

Shower tray repair in Framwellgate Moor, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Whether it’s chips on the edges and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can generally put it right.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Framwellgate Moor and across County Durham.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Framwellgate Moor. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

What affects the price in Framwellgate Moor

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Framwellgate Moor. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What we are called out for in Framwellgate Moor

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

Clients usually contact us about:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Framwellgate Moor

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
