Shower tray repair near Northaw Valley

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

About our shower tray repair in Northaw Valley

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, in acrylic, ceramic and cast iron.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Repairing versus replacing in Northaw Valley

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Northaw Valley

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

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Northaw Valley
