Need shower tray repair in Highlane?

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Shower tray repair at your home in Highlane

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Whether it’s cracks running from the waste and chips caused during fitting, we can typically put it right, on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Highlane: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, normally the following day.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Highlane

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How to care for the finish

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

If you are in Highlane and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
