About our shower tray repair in Halewood

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are movement when you stand on it and a crack across the base.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Halewood

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

How much does shower tray repair cost in Halewood?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Is it messy?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Halewood

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A crack across the base
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A damaged area around the waste

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
