Your questions about shower tray repair in Near Sawrey

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Shower tray repair in Near Sawrey, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include a dull, stained or worn surface and cracks running from the waste, on ceramic, acrylic and stone resin.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

What affects the price in Near Sawrey

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LA22 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
