Need shower tray repair in Morton?

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Advice

How we handle shower tray repair in Morton

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. We’re often asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and a dull, stained or worn surface, on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we are called out for in Morton

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Questions from Morton

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What affects the price in Morton

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Morton. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
