Need shower tray repair in Marple Bridge?

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered 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. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not 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’ll get a fixed figure back.

Shower tray repair at your home in Marple Bridge

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s scratches in the surface and damage from a refit or building work, we can help, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

When we would advise against a repair

Marple Bridge: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marple Bridge as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
