Shower tray repair in Newton-le-Willows without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for chips or cracks by the plughole and chips on the edges, in ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Newton-le-Willows

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

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

See our pricing.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Common questions in Newton-le-Willows

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we’re called out for in Newton-le-Willows

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long it needs to cure
