Shower tray repair for Nethertown homes

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

About our shower tray repair in Nethertown

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. If you are dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and chips on the edges, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Nethertown

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

Your questions about shower tray repair in Nethertown

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Nethertown is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Nethertown?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your CA22 postcode.

Do you work in Nethertown?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Nethertown from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What we’re called out for in Nethertown

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

Look out for these signs:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Before booking anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What preparation is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Nethertown use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

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