Shower tray repair in Holtridge

About our shower tray repair in Holtridge

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. If you are dealing with a cracked shower tray and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Shropshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Holtridge. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Holtridge

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Holtridge

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

FAQs for Holtridge

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Holtridge. Prices do not change with location.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
