Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Do you need shower tray repair in Keswick?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Keswick

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Keswick

For anyone letting property in or around Keswick, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

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

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Advice

Repair or replace in Keswick?

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
