Trusted shower tray repair in Heath

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What we are called out for in Heath

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Common reasons people in Heath contact us include:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Heath questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you work in Heath?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Heath and the rest of Halton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your WA7 postcode.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Halton.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What we can’t put right

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

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
