About our shower tray repair in Morley

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. If you are dealing with a cracked shower tray and chipped corners or rims, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Morley. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Morley use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

FAQs for Morley

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

What do you need from me?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Morley. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

How long does it take to cure?

Generally the day after. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Morley

  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
