Need shower tray repair in Millington Green?

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work. For a rural address like Millington Green, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the shower tray repair comes with us in one trip.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space clear if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you don’t 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.

What affects the price in Millington Green

Prices start from £95. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in Millington Green get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Can I fix it myself?

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 normally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Do you need shower tray repair in Millington Green?

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage around the waste
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you care for a building such as Hulland CofE Primary School, changing-room showers can be repaired in place too.

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Repairing it takes one visit. In an older home in a village like Millington Green, replacing a shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
