Shower tray repair in Holmes Chapel

How we handle shower tray repair in Holmes Chapel

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’re frequently asked to fix staining and dullness across the tray and scratches from cleaning or grit, across acrylic, ceramic and stone resin.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Holmes Chapel and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Holmes Chapel: your questions answered

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Holmes Chapel?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CW4 postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What information do you need?

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

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Holmes Chapel

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 to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repair or replace in Holmes Chapel?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
