Shower tray repair for Houston homes

About our shower tray repair in Houston

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include scratches in the surface and edge chips from dropped bottles, across enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Landlord and trade work in Houston

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

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Houston use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PA6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Houston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Houston: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

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.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Are there extra charges for Houston?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

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

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
