Trusted shower tray repair in Laughton

Shower tray repair in Laughton without replacing anything

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. Our technicians work on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and chips caused during fitting.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicestershire.

Repairing versus replacing in Laughton

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our prices page.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What affects the price in Laughton

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Laughton. The price comes down to:

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

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Laughton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Laughton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Laughton questions

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

What areas do you cover?

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Laughton?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
