Shower tray repair for Gnosall homes

Shower tray repair in Gnosall without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. If you are dealing with a dull, stained or worn surface and cracks running from the waste, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

In and around Gnosall, most homes are houses or bungalows, and a tray repair is normally a short visit.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Do you need shower tray repair in Gnosall?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Movement when you stand on it

If you manage a building such as Gnosall St Lawrence Coe Primary Academy, we repair changing-room showers as well as work in homes.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

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

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring all our kit in the van, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically 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. In a smaller place like Gnosall, parking is rarely a problem. Mention a lane, gate or long drive when you book.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  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 whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gnosall

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
