Do you need shower tray repair in Morley Smithy?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Cracks running from the waste

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How the colour is matched

Shower tray repair in Morley Smithy without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We’re frequently asked to fix cracks running from the waste and chips or cracks by the plughole, on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Morley Smithy as everywhere else we work.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Morley Smithy: your questions answered

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Morley Smithy?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you work in Morley Smithy?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Morley Smithy and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Morley Smithy.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Morley Smithy clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
