Shower tray repair for Holden homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Holden

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s a cracked shower tray and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can help, whatever the material.

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Holden

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you come to Holden?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Holden from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Landlord and trade work in Holden

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holden as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Work done at your home or business

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A cracked shower tray
