Shower tray repair in Halton without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are scratches in the surface and chips or cracks by the plughole.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Halton and across Buckinghamshire.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Halton

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.

Look out for these signs:

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

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Common questions in Halton

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do you work in Halton?

We do. Technicians travel to Halton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Do you cover the whole of Buckinghamshire?

The whole UK, including all of Buckinghamshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Repairs by material

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.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
