Shower tray repair for Gold Street homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Gold Street

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 repair lasts. If you are dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can normally put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Repairing versus replacing in Gold Street

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gold Street. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

When to call us in Gold Street

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Look out for these signs:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that flexes
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Gold Street

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gold Street

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.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
