Shower tray repair for Lurgan homes

Shower tray repair in Lurgan, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. If you’re dealing with staining and dullness across the tray and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Lurgan

Signs you need shower tray repair in Lurgan

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

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

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What affects the price in Lurgan

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lurgan. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

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.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lurgan as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
