About our shower tray repair in Higher Bartle

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Higher Bartle and across Lancashire.

Questions from Higher Bartle

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you cover Higher Bartle?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

  • A dull, stained or worn surface

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Should you replace it?

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. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

  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.
