Shower tray repair near Henbury

Shower tray repair in Henbury without replacing anything

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. Typical jobs include damage from a refit or building work and damage around the waste, across cast iron, acrylic and stone resin.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Henbury, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Henbury. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

10 questions to ask before you book

FAQs for Henbury

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What areas do you cover?

All of Cheshire East, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
