Shower tray repair near Londonthorpe

Questions from Londonthorpe

Is a cracked tray repairable?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

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

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

About our shower tray repair in Londonthorpe

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Do you need shower tray repair in Londonthorpe?

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

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

For anyone letting property in or around Londonthorpe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. 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.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Londonthorpe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Most customers in Londonthorpe get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
