About our shower tray repair in Great Kelk

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 will tell you if that’s the case. We are often asked to fix movement when you stand on it and damage from a refit or building work, in acrylic, stone resin and cast iron.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Do you need shower tray repair in Great Kelk?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scuffs and light scratches

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Great Kelk. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Kelk

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
