Your questions about shower tray repair in Hurlston

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Should you replace it?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hurlston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lancashire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Hurlston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Hurlston

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Common reasons people in Hurlston contact us are:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Scratches in the surface

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
