How to compare quotes

Shower tray repair in Newbold without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. If you’re dealing with chipped corners or rims and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can usually put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlord and trade work in Newbold

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

FAQs for Newbold

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you cover Newbold?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Newbold and the rest of Rochdale. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is it messy?

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

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. 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.
