Signs you need shower tray repair in Manea

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused during fitting

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Materials we work on in Manea

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

What affects the price in Manea

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Manea get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We leave the room as we found it

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
