Shower tray repair for Long Buckby Wharf homes

Repair or replace in Long Buckby Wharf?

A new shower tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Shower tray repair at your home in Long Buckby Wharf

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are 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 fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

Materials we repair

What we’re called out for in Long Buckby Wharf

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Look out for these signs:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips on the edges

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What preparation is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

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

Common questions in Long Buckby Wharf

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Do you work in Long Buckby Wharf?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Long Buckby Wharf and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

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.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
