Trusted shower tray repair in Houghton

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hampshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

About our shower tray repair in Houghton

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. If you are dealing with movement when you stand on it and chipped corners or rims, we can usually put it right, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Do you need shower tray repair in Houghton?

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Cracks running from the waste

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected

Repairing versus replacing in Houghton

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Houghton

Are there extra charges for Houghton?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Houghton?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy 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, or most of a day 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. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

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

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

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.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SO20 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
