Do you need shower tray repair in Mount Pleasant?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Mount Pleasant

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you come to Mount Pleasant?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Mount Pleasant. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Suffolk.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Landlord and trade work in Mount Pleasant

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mount Pleasant as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Repairing versus replacing in Mount Pleasant

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
