How we handle shower tray repair in Laceby

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. We’re often asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and cracks running from the waste, across acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Questions from Laceby

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Laceby. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Laceby, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
