About our shower tray repair in Ingleton

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Typical jobs include a damaged area around the waste and scuffs and light scratches, across stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Ingleton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

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

What we’re called out for in Ingleton

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to look after the finish
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Take a look at our prices page.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

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.

For anyone letting property in or around Ingleton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Common questions in Ingleton

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you come to Ingleton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ingleton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
