Shower tray repair for Mountnessing homes

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

How we handle shower tray repair in Mountnessing

We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Common call-outs are for snagging damage in a new bathroom and a dull, stained or worn surface, on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Questions from Mountnessing

Will you leave a mess?

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

Are there extra charges for Mountnessing?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Mountnessing and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What affects the price in Mountnessing

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

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.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
