Shower tray repair in Little Urswick

Shower tray repair at your home in Little Urswick

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s damage around the waste and scratches in the surface, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back

If you are in Little Urswick and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Little Urswick: your questions answered

Do you come to Little Urswick?

We do. We send a technician to Little Urswick for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

How it works

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 job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
