Shower tray repair in Heamoor

Shower tray repair in Heamoor, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We work on stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are a crack across the base and chips caused during fitting.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Questions from Heamoor

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you work in Heamoor?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Heamoor for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Common problems we fix in Heamoor

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Heamoor. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace in Heamoor?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Heamoor. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
