Shower tray repair near Netherthorpe

Shower tray repair in Netherthorpe without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for edge chips from dropped bottles and damage from a refit or building work, in enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic.

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

Landlord and trade work in Netherthorpe

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

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

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Netherthorpe, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Netherthorpe

Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

10 questions to ask before booking

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

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

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaking waste fittings

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

Questions from Netherthorpe

Are there extra charges for Netherthorpe?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
