Shower tray repair at your home in Lower Key

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our technicians work on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked shower tray and a tray that flexes.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What affects the price in Lower Key

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

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 can’t see.

Lower Key: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Lower Key included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you need shower tray repair in Lower Key?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Lower Key. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before you book

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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