Trusted shower tray repair in Low Worsall

Shower tray repair in Low Worsall, done in place

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with damage from a refit or building work and a tray that flexes, we can help, on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Low Worsall and across Stockton-on-Tees.

What affects the price in Low Worsall

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Low Worsall. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most customers in Low Worsall get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Low Worsall: your questions answered

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Low Worsall and the rest of Stockton-on-Tees. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Common problems we fix in Low Worsall

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

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

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
