Signs you need shower tray repair in Longhorsley

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A crack across the base

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

Shower tray repair in Longhorsley without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. 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 a damaged area around the waste, on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northumberland.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

Longhorsley: your questions answered

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

For anyone letting property in or around Longhorsley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Longhorsley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most customers in Longhorsley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
