Trusted shower tray repair in Lofthouse Gate

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Shower tray repair in Lofthouse Gate, done in place

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We regularly repair cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are damage around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lofthouse Gate

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

If you manage property in Lofthouse Gate, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairing versus replacing in Lofthouse Gate

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. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

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

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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