Shower tray repair in Long Stratton

Shower tray repair in Long Stratton without replacing anything

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Our technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused during fitting and a crack across the base.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Long Stratton questions

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you come to Long Stratton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Long Stratton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?

We cover the entire UK, including Long Stratton and the rest of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

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.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Honest limits

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

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Do you need shower tray repair in Long Stratton?

Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Long Stratton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll 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. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
