Should you replace it?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lapal

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

If you manage property in Lapal, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

Related advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

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

FAQs for Lapal

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you work in Lapal?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Lapal from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

How much does shower tray repair cost in Lapal?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your B62 postcode.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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 reply with a fixed price.
