Shower tray repair near Minions

Landlords, agents and businesses in Minions

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Minions as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

About our shower tray repair in Minions

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s chips caused during fitting and damage around the waste, we can usually put it right.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Do you need shower tray repair in Minions?

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips on the edges
  • Movement when you stand on it

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Minions customers choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No extra charge for your area

Common questions in Minions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

What a repair cannot fix

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Minions. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
