Shower tray repair near Minster

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Work done at your home or business

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Questions from Minster

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What we are called out for in Minster

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips on the edges
  • Chips caused during fitting

Before booking anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Minster. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

For a price in Minster, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
