Trusted shower tray repair in Hothersall

Common problems we fix in Hothersall

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

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

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Movement when you stand on it

10 questions to ask before you book

Shower tray repair in Hothersall without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. If you’re dealing with a crack across the base and chipped corners or rims, we can help, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What affects the price in Hothersall

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

FAQs for Hothersall

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time on the day, generally the next day.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Do you come to Hothersall?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hothersall and the rest of Lancashire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

Materials we work on in Hothersall

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

For landlords and businesses

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

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
