How we handle shower tray repair in North Kilworth

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches from cleaning or grit.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

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

When to call us in North Kilworth

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

10 questions to ask before you book

FAQs for North Kilworth

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you’re in North Kilworth and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlord and trade work in North Kilworth

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in North Kilworth

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
