Shower tray repair in Moorend

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

How we handle shower tray repair in Moorend

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Our technicians work on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin, and people most often call us about a damaged area around the waste and cracks running from the waste.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

When to call us in Moorend

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, generally along the edges or by the waste.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Cracks running from the waste

Choosing a repair company

Questions from Moorend

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you work in Moorend?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Moorend from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
