Shower tray repair for Laughton homes

Landlord and trade work in Laughton

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

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.

Shower tray repair in Laughton, done in place

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s movement when you stand on it and chips on the edges, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Laughton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Read our prices page.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Laughton. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

How to compare quotes

Laughton questions

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you come to Laughton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Laughton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
