Shower tray repair in Kelbrook

Shower tray repair in Kelbrook, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a cracked shower tray and chips on the edges.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Kelbrook and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

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

What we work on

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

When to call us in Kelbrook

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Cracks running from the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: 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. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Questions from Kelbrook

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you cover Kelbrook?

We do. Technicians travel to Kelbrook from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally the next day. We will confirm before we leave.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What affects the price in Kelbrook

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Kelbrook. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
