Signs you need shower tray repair in Glazebury

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Cracks running from the waste

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

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

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Glazebury

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Glazebury and the rest of Warrington. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Glazebury?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WA3 postcode.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
