Shower tray repair near Littleover

Shower tray repair at your home in Littleover

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s chipped corners or rims and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can help.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Littleover and across Derby.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we are called out for in Littleover

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Littleover: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you work in Littleover?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Littleover and the rest of Derby. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Littleover?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Littleover. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most customers in Littleover get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

You do not need a survey visit. 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.
