Shower tray repair near Legar

Shower tray repair at your home in Legar

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. We’re often asked to fix a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a crack across the base, in enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Legar and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, generally along the edges or by the waste.

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Legar

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

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Legar. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Powys and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
