About our shower tray repair in Mills Hill

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Common call-outs are for a damaged area around the waste and scratches in the surface, on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Get a moving tray checked

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

Landlord and trade work in Mills Hill

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Rochdale and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Mills Hill, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Repairing versus replacing in Mills Hill

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Questions from Mills Hill

How long before I can shower?

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

What information do you need?

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

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you work in Mills Hill?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Mills Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

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

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
