About our shower tray repair in Laneham

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s scratches from cleaning or grit and cracks running from the waste, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Laneham and across Nottinghamshire.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic

Laneham: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you come to Laneham?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Laneham from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
