Shower tray repair for Hansel Village homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start 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 doing several items at once reduces it.

About our shower tray repair in Hansel Village

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We are often asked to fix a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a dull, stained or worn surface, in acrylic, stone resin and cast iron.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Hansel Village and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Hansel Village: your questions answered

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How long does it take to cure?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you come to Hansel Village?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hansel Village for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you cover the entire of East Ayrshire?

The entire UK, including all of East Ayrshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

When to call us in Hansel Village

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price covers travel

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hansel Village

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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What affects the price in Hansel Village

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hansel Village. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hansel Village. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. 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.
