How we handle shower tray repair in Leadenham

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Whether it’s a tray that flexes and chips caused during fitting, we can normally put it right, on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. 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. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Leadenham. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LN5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

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

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Leadenham

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse away soap after showering

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Repairing versus replacing in Leadenham

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
