Shower tray repair near North Heath

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

How we handle shower tray repair in North Heath

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are movement when you stand on it and a crack across the base.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Heath use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron

North Heath questions

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What affects the price in North Heath

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When to call us in North Heath

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.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage around the waste

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find more damage
