Shower tray repair in Lessness Heath

About our shower tray repair in Lessness Heath

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 repair lasts. Whether it’s cracks running from the waste and staining and dullness across the tray, we can generally put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

When to call us in Lessness Heath

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace in Lessness Heath?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Honest limits

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

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Lessness Heath: your questions answered

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Lessness Heath included. Travel is included in the price.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Greater London.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lessness Heath. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.
