Trusted shower tray repair in Longhouse

Shower tray repair at your home in Longhouse

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We regularly repair enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about scuffs and light scratches and movement when you stand on it.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repairing versus replacing in Longhouse

Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our pricing.

Do you need shower tray repair in Longhouse?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips on the edges

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if they find more damage

Questions from Longhouse

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you come to Longhouse?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Longhouse from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How long does it take to cure?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, normally the day after.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Landlord and trade work in Longhouse

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

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

What affects the price in Longhouse

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

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.
