Shower tray repair in Maney

About our shower tray repair in Maney

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and light scratches and chips caused during fitting.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

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

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

What affects the price in Maney

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Do you need shower tray repair in Maney?

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Cracks running from the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Common questions in Maney

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

When can I use the shower again?

Typically the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done 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.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Maney

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
