Shower tray repair for Mill Corner homes

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Mill Corner. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Shower tray repair at your home in Mill Corner

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from cleaning or grit and damage from a refit or building work.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Mill Corner: your questions answered

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Are there extra charges for Mill Corner?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Do you need shower tray repair in Mill Corner?

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A crack across the base

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

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

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mill Corner use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Mill Corner, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
