Shower tray repair near Lumsdale

Shower tray repair in Lumsdale, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about cracks running from the waste and chips caused during fitting.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down 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. 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. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

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.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Lumsdale, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Lumsdale?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips on the edges

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What prep work is covered
