Shower tray repair in Ladycross, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. If you are dealing with staining and dullness across the tray and scuffs and light scratches, we can help.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ladycross as everywhere else we work.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Landlord and trade work in Ladycross

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

FAQs for Ladycross

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Do you need shower tray repair in Ladycross?

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scratches in the surface

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ladycross. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PL15 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
