Trusted shower tray repair in Marford

Shower tray repair in Marford without replacing anything

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and cracks running from the waste, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Work for landlords and builders

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

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Repair or replace in Marford?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Marford

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common questions in Marford

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Wrexham.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
