Trusted shower tray repair in Middleton-in-Teesdale

Shower tray repair at your home in Middleton-in-Teesdale

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for movement when you stand on it and staining and dullness across the tray, on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common problems we fix in Middleton-in-Teesdale

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Before you book anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to look after the finish
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
