Shower tray repair near Glentham

Shower tray repair in Glentham without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We are frequently asked to fix chips caused during fitting and damage around the waste, on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Glentham: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How long before I can shower?

Generally the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Do you come to Glentham?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Glentham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Glentham, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Do you need shower tray repair in Glentham?

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

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A crack across the base

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

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 price the job without visiting.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

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