How we handle shower tray repair in Little Horton

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about a tray that flexes and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Little Horton

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A fixed quote before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Little Horton

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What happens after I send photos?

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

Landlord and trade work in Little Horton

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bradford and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

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