Repairing versus replacing in Heaton Norris

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. In a smaller place like Heaton Norris, getting trades out for a full replacement can take time to arrange. A repair is one visit from us.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Heaton Norris

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Everything repaired in place

Shower tray repair in Heaton Norris without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. If you have movement when you stand on it and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can normally put it right.

In and around Heaton Norris, most homes are houses or bungalows, and a shower tray repair is normally a few hours’ work.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it. Visits around Heaton Norris are generally simple: we park, protect the room and get started, after agreeing the plan with you.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Do you need shower tray repair in Heaton Norris?

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips on the edges
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Rented homes near Stockport station (about 0.8 miles south) change hands often, and repairing shower trays between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Questions from Heaton Norris

I let a flat near Stockport station. Can you help between tenants?

Yes. Send photos and the address, and we will quote, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.

Do you work for schools and businesses in Heaton Norris?

Yes, we work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. Send photos and details of the building.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Heaton Norris.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Heaton Norris use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • 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.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
