Shower tray repair near Heversham

Shower tray repair at your home in Heversham

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, stained or worn surface and scuffs and light scratches.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Stained shower tray resurfaced to clean white, before and after

Landlords, agents and businesses in Heversham

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Heversham. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most customers in Heversham get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

FAQs for Heversham

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

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 happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

When can I use the shower again?

Generally the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Are there extra charges for Heversham?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Heversham

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Common reasons people in Heversham contact us are:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
