Shower tray repair in Long Clawson

Shower tray repair at your home in Long Clawson

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. Typical jobs include a crack across the base and movement when you stand on it, in acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Long Clawson

For anyone letting property in or around Long Clawson, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Long Clawson

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Long Clawson. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

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

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Repairing versus replacing in Long Clawson

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
