DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Shower tray repair at your home in Great Sankey

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s chips on the edges and damage around the waste, we can generally put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Great Sankey, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

FAQs for Great Sankey

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Great Sankey?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your WA5 postcode.

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish, typically the following day.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
